I'm not Fivestar or Ben but here's a very recent link to Toyota's hybrid sales.

Over 1M Prius models have sold and the Prius is 75% of Toyota's sales so I assume their total hybrid sales are running around 1.35M to date. I'll try to find the Lexus information tomorrow.

"Meanwhile, Toyota, an early leader in hybrid technology, unveiled a third-generation Prius for 2010 that will get up to 50 mpg. More than one million models of the Prius have been sold worldwide since the car's introduction in 1997."

"The Prius accounts for 75 percent of all Toyota hybrid sales. According to the Automotive News Data Center, it continues to lead the market with 241,405 cars out of a total 315,761 hybrid vehicles sold in 2008. The only company to increase its hybrid sales -- almost three fold -- in 2008 was General Motors, which sold 14,439 hybrids compared to 5,175 in the previous year."
