Isn’t it their first plug-in hybrid? Seems like they could be testing the waters and ended up with way more demand than they anticipated. I guess we will see in a year or two if they can ramp up.

They’ve had the Prius since 2012, I thought?

No, they've had Prius plug-in hybrids for awhile now (but as far as I can tell, the demand for those haven't been nearly as high as the Rav4 Prime).
