300 cars of one type and configuration in a region in a few months is a tall order, even for larger fleet customers; even rental car agencies avoid being bottle necked like this by diversifying the fleet.
Also, I believe the Prius C has also been recently discontinued by Toyota; the most direct replacement would be the Corolla Hybrid. Evo might take the opportunity to review what would be the best option moving forward and see if another car manufacturer is willing to cut them a decent deal.
The most obvious solution for Evo would be to probably accelerate rolling out more vehicles as it can get them, while slowing down or halting retirements by extending service life.

Evo is owned by BCAA so I'm sure they have the capital if they think it's worthwhile. I didn't know that about the Prius C, but I'm sure Evo did. They're probably already prepping for a move to the Corolla.
That, or simply folding up, who knows.
