Who ever said Toyota buyers were smart buyers? Any research will show the conventionally powered twins of hybrids are a better buy. Toyota was smart not to make a conventionally powered twin for the Prius. That is why their other hybrids are not selling nearly as well. The average new vehicle buy in the US replaces their new vehicle, with another new vehicle. in three to four years with 30K to 45K on the clock. The hybrid cost thousands more to own, ever if held for five years.
