It's difficult to get current figures on hybrids sold since statistics usually take some time to compile but the number of hybrids is steadily increasing:
"USA Sales:
9,350 in 2000
20,287 in 2001
35,000 in 2002
47,525 in 2003
88,000 in 2004
205,749 in 2005
168,686 in 2006 (thru August)
Regional Breakdown
The best indicator of adoption rates by geography are new hybrid vehicle registrations. In 2005, California strongly outpaced all other states with 52,619 new hybrid vehicle registrations, about 5 times that of second place Florida with 10,470. Texas came in third with 9,632; New York came in fourth with 9,372; and Virginia rounds out the top five with 8,650 new hybrid vehicle registrations in 2005."
According to these stats an amazing 25% of hybrids are in California.
