Prius Sales Surge But Volt and Leaf Sales Fall

The Prius is America's number 5 top seller, trailing just the Ford F-Series, Camry/Solara, Accord, and Chevy Silverado.  Consumers seeking to cut their gasoline bill snapped up 25,168 Prius models in April .

The sales news for the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf were not as good.  Sales fell compared to the previous month for both, but the April Volt sales of more than 1,400 cars were considerably higher than the January and February numbers. www.plugincars.com/chevy-volt-sales-still-sizzling-nissan-leaf-slumps-april-2012-120922.html.

April was another good month for the emerging electric vehicle options.
