Toyota Motor Corp., Japan’s biggest automaker, said it booked 180,000 domestic orders for the new Prius gasoline-electric hybrid within a month of the car’s debut.
The company had set a sales target of 10,000 units a month in Japan, it said in a statement today. The tally includes 80,000 orders placed before the car went on sale on May 18.
The third-generation Prius was Japan’s bestselling car last month, surpassing Honda Motor Co.’s Insight, the first hybrid vehicle to top Japan’s monthly auto sales. Hybrid sales have surged on the introduction of new models and tax breaks.
