Re: Camry hybrid discontinued?
I think the writer's data might be correct but I also think the conclusion drawn is not correct. The TCH is a winner and may end up being as much as 25% of total Camry sales ( 10000 monthly ). It fit's so perfectly into the Camry lineup that I'd be shocked if they dropped it.
In addition to the HH there is the hybrid minivan which is expected here next. Now I can see an Estima hybrid being introduced as a Prius minivan. The Yaris-sized Prius makes perfect sense as well.
I don't think the writer took all the facts into consideration when concluding that the TCH would be dropped.
Anybody hear anything about a Tundra hybrid? GM's 2-mode to be introduced in the fall will really put them alone in this segment.
