Re: Toyota sales by model
The peak sales month about total Toyota/Lexus hybrid was August and November sales was down 30% from August.
The most down vehicle was Camry Hybrid. Maybe, the reason was they have to slow down the production moving the main factory from Tsutsumi to Kentucky.

400h .. 1327 vs 1722 -23%
The market situation and financial situation are significantly different this year as opposed to last year. Customers are scarcer. If they have been financing their autos using home equity lines those interest rates are beginning to pinch. Auto company finance rates for top credit buyers are in the mid 8% range.
The change in the tax credits on 10-1 certainly has some effect on hybrid sales but so does the 30% decline in fuel prices since July. In addition the Highlander is aging and declining gracefully before it's renewal next year.
There is somewhat less urgency in the market for all of these reasons.
