Toyota Motor Corporation recently sold its 5 millionth hybrid vehicle. That is cumulative sales of Lexus and Toyota hybrids, and a very significant milestone that cements TMC’s position at the top of green motoring industry. It all began in 1997 when Toyota announced the “Coaster Hybrid EV” in August in Japan and launched the “Prius”—the world’s first mass-produced hybrid passenger vehicle—in December. Now they offer a hybrid version of almost their entire lineup.

On this occasion they made an elaborate video celebrating the milestone with real TMC hybrid owners:
