Wasn't Toyota the brand most hesitant to move to proper EVs from hybrids and also the third biggest anti-climate lobbyist in the world?
I'm pretty sure their definition of EV is more focused on PHEVs than BEVs, which is to say, gas powered vehicles
Okay yes, per article
In the paragraph about how this isn't a decision to spend more on EVs, it's a decision not to cut them
I always got the feeling Toyota really dislikes lithium batteries.
