    Toyota's president, Fujio Cho, has said on several occasions that the Prius is being built with increased automobile demand in China -- as well as the increased price in gas due to China's increased demand for fuel.

    There's a good Time U.K. article quote Cho, and talking about this issue in more detail, referenced in this PriusChat thread.

    I sure hope they can make more of them than they currently are. There are an awful lot of people in China.

    I'd love it if EV/PHEV sales take off in China. Best way to get prices to come down for everyone!
