May 1, 2008 - Torrance, CA - Toyota Motor Sales (TMS), U.S.A., Inc., today reported April sales of 217,700 vehicles, a decrease of 4.5 percent from last April.
"Smaller vehicles are going over big," said TMS President Jim Lentz. "With oil prices at record levels, compact cars and hybrids continue to lead the way."

...
Toyota Division passenger cars recorded April sales of 121,097 units, up 7.2 percent over the same period last year. Passenger-car sales were led by Camry, which posted April sales of 40,016 units. Camry Hybrid reported sales of 6,678 units in April, up 40 percent over April 2007. The Prius hybrid gas-electric mid-size sedan posted best-ever April sales of 21,757 units, an increase of 53.8 percent over last April. Yaris reported best-ever April sales of 11,434 units, up 45.9 percent over the year-ago month.
...
No bad, not bad at all.

I understand Honda had a good month and parts of Ford. Anyone care to find and post them?

With gas almost $4 a gallon over most of the US now, it's not surprising to see the Prius, TCH and Yaris sales take off. People are now realizing what most of us hybrid owners have known for a long time.........that owning a vehicle that you can afford to drive is a must-have and hybrid technology is becoming mainstream. Why did it take them so long to get on board?? Who knows......??
