The slow and steady decline of the Toyota Prius in Australia

In a year where hybrid cars surged to all-time highs, the original hybrid – the Toyota Prius – sold only 95 units. That's despite hybrids becoming increasingly hot property for Australian buyers in recent months. In 2020, Aussies purchased 60,417 hybrid vehicles (up from 31,191 the year prior), meaning the standard Prius represented only a 0.15 per cent slice of that pie.
