Toyota Prius: Now, the 3rd Most Popular Car in the World

How did a little Toyota hybrid manage to become the third best-selling vehicle in the world? Some attribute the rise of social media as it allows satisfied customers to spread positive word-of-mouth praise like never before. Others say its rising gas prices, which are forcing people to seriously reconsider their driving habits and methods of transport.

There are many theories as to how the 2012 Toyota Prius has managed achieve such incredible sales, but we here at Toyota Of Wallingford know the truth.

So what is it already?

The power of choice. Toyota is giving hybrid drivers more options by expanding the Prius lineup from being some simple model to be an entire lineup of fuel-efficient, eco-friendly vehicles to choose from. In other words, no matter what you're looking for in a vehicle, chances are there's a Prius that fits your lifestyle.

Big on space? The 2012 Toyota Prius v has you more than covered. Need something more maneuverable? The 2012 Toyota Prius c can fit just about anywhere. Especially conscious of your carbon footprint? The 2012 Toyota Prius Plug-In can go even further than your average hybrid on even less gasoline.

Toyota Records Incredible Sales of Prius Plug-In

In our last post, we here at Toyota of Wallingford outlined how long it typically takes to sell a 2012 Toyota Prius c. And while that might seem impressive, we have another sales statistic that's will wow you even more.

The 2012 Toyota Prius Plug-In is the newest member of the Prius Family of Cars, and it's available for a test drive here at 859 North Colony Rd. Wallingford, CT 06492. Last month, it sold a total of 1,654 units last month across the country.

Doesn't seem like a whole lot at a glance? Allow us to put it into perspective. Last month, its two biggest competitors, the Volt and Leaf, both sold fewer models. Respectively, they sold 1,462 and 370 units last month. And they've been well established within the automotive world for years longer than the Prius Plug-In. In other words, the 2012 Toyota Prius Plug-In is living up to the high standards that the original 2012 Toyota Prius has set in place.

And it's continuing to sell quite well too, as are all other Prius models. In fact, last month's Prius sales topped a combined 25,168 units. What's more incredible is that number marks a 126.9-percent increase over the same time last year. In other words, more drivers near Hartford and beyond are looking to save money at the pump, and the Prius Family of Cars is the best way to do so.
