Default Toyota working overtime to produce more hybrid Priuses in Japan

Not only did Toyota's redesigned Prius hybrid outsell Honda's Insight hybrid in Japan last month, it was the best-selling vehicle in that nation.

Toyota sold 10,915 Priuses in May in Japan, according to the Japan Automobile Dealers Association, vs. Honda's 8,183 Insights. It was the second-consecutive month that a gasoline-electric hybrid was Japan's top seller. In the U.S., where the new Prius is yet to hit showrooms, Toyota sold 10,091 of the familar version last month, and Honda sold 2,780 Insights. Neither was among the 20 top-selling cars in the U.S. market, according to sales tracker Autodata.
