Hybrid sales took off in April with Toyota hybrids exceeding 10,000 units for the
first time, or more than 52 per cent of its total sales tally of 20,771 vehicles. The
Toyota RAV4 was Australia’s best-selling vehicle in April posting 5,847 sales
consolidating its position as our top-selling medium sized SUV. And reinforcing
Toyota’s success with hybrids, 94 percent of April RAV4 sales were hybrid
models. Despite the record deliveries from back orders Toyota has also
acknowledged that customer orders in April confirm a growing number of
Australians are now seeking fuel efficient hybrids that are practical, capable and
affordable. RAV 4 average wait times have improved this year, from previously as
long as two years, Toyota now expecting them to be back to normal to around
three to four months on order by the end of June.
