    If 2020 model is going to be released this early, is there going to be a massive sell off of remaining 2019 models soon?

    That sounds right. MrHockey’s dealer also said late June - see #5 here. 2020 availability? | PriusChat

    In Northern California, they upped the manufacturer rebate to $2,500.

    It was $2,500 through 6/3 here in RI, and now I see that’s extrnded through 7/8, so I’m guessing that’s their Fourth of July offer.
    Several dealers here have 2019’s in stock.

    Plus the color - the red for 2019 and earlier was "hypersonic red", which is replaced in 2020 with "supersonic red."

    Mine arrived last Wednesday on the 12th. I was also told August. 2019 was all sold out. I haven’t picked mine up yet as I don’t have access an outlet to charge my vehicle in my current condo and just told I can’t switch parking spots. I put a $500 deposit but did not sign any papers. Anyone know if I can back out without any issues?

    usually yes. but you need to ask first, and if they decline, see what you signed, and what local laws state

    You don’t need to charge it to drive it.

    You're in Canada, no need for engine heaters at your condo?

    Research changing association by-laws. Many plug-in owners have been successful in getting either charging stations (hard) or additional plugs (easy) installed for owners.

    Nuclear option: move and tell them why. Vote with your pocket book.
