Toyota Prius Plug-In Flies off Lots – Third Fastest-Selling Car in April

2012 Toyota Prius Plug-In

Cars.com released their results of studies of car sales trends for March and April, and the Toyota Prius Plug-in was in the top three fastest-selling cars for both months.

The average time a new 2012 or 2013 model car spent on any car lot, from arrival until final purchase, was 45 days in April, up from 41 days in March. However, this is still a better national average than April last year, which found cars lingering for 48 days.

But not the Toyota Prius. 

The 2012 Prius Plug-in gathers no dust, leaving lots in an average just five days, topped only by the 2013 BMW X3 and 2013 BMW X5, which both cycle in four days. The 2012Toyota Prius c follows closely with a seven-day turnover time.

The Toyota Prius has outsold its class competitors, the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf, in both months, and sales are expected to grow as long as supply can meet demand.

Moral of the story? Don’t wait to get yours, because they don’t hang around long, and you don’t want to miss out!
