Re: Time for Toyota to Drop HSD Hybrids?? - Lexus Flagship LS600h and GS450h?

They have about an extra 200 Priuses sold in Canada AND approx. 1800 extra sold in Japan for June 2008 - over June 2007 - which was not a strong month.

This story isn't about demand - which appears to be there and is strong.

It's really about a radical lack of supply.
