While the Toyota Prius Liftback continues to pace the hybrid vehicles, the Camry Hybrid continues to perform well at over 10 percent of Camry sales, with annual sales in the range of 40,000 to 45,000.
The Prius c and v held their own and were consistent with prior months, while the Liftback declined somewhat. Even with the slight decline in the Liftback, the three models are in line to sell 225,000 units or more for the year which would be the best result ever for the model line (no doubt aided by the addition of the c and the v).
For its first month of sales, the Ford C-Max Hybrid found itself as the ninth-best seller among hybrids.
Hybrid sales reached 2.9 percent of sales, almost in line with last month. As a whole however they dipped slightly with a 2.94-pecent take rate compared to 3.0 percent in August.
