Answer 2

Toyota Prius Marketing Strategy

Answer 3

Toyota's marketing strategy is pretty sound for the Prius, as it seems to be selling well. Instead of their external marketing, I would focus on their internal marketing on how to reduce cost without compromising quality.

In Japan, they use a system of Keiretsu - this is a phenomenal system that the Western cultures have never been able to get right (basically, its working together!). Take a look: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keiretsu
