I doubt SoCal is Prius Prime capital of the world. It's here in the SF Bay Area. I normally see 2-3 Primes an HOUR! On a good day, I can see 5 Primes at the SAME TIME in the same field of vision. When I public charge, half the time it's a Prime. The other half is split between an older Leaf or Bolt.
at my work, there are 12 charging stations, and every day there are 5 or 6 Primes plugged in charging! Seems to be one of the most popular cars here
