HCH sales up, Prius down
The May figures from the manufacturers show that Honda sold 2890 Civic hybrids compared to 1895 in May last year. Toyota sold 8103 compared to 9461 last year.
The increase of 46% for the HCH could hint that they have ramped up production. Maybe the crashing sales of the Accord hybrid, down to 520 in May, allow them to produce more HCHs. Are they built at the same plant?
The drop for the Prius is puzzling because I'm sure they're selling as many as they can build. Productions delays? Is some capacity being sacrificed to the Camry hybrid?
