Things are not always as they seem. Is 2021 RAV4 Hybrid being dethroned in sales by a different very popular Toyota Hybrid?
I wrote a Torque News story last week covering Toyota Motor North America sales for both June and for the first half of 2021.
My focus was on total sales for what Toyota refers to as alternative powered vehicles (APVs). These can include hybrids, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles (plus battery electric vehicles, but there were none for this list).
One of the most surprising parts of the Toyota sales reveal was that RAV4 Hybrid has been replaced as top seller by another, apparently even more popular, Toyota hybrid.
