Huh, after spending years not developing EV technologies?
I mean good luck to them, but I don’t see this coming soon. Tesla is still far ahead in pure EV technologies (talking about supercharger network but also engines power and efficiency)
Hybrid != Full on EV. Especially their goal are opposite : the EV part of a hybrid drivetrain needs power density (smoll battery and engine needs lotta HP) whereas full EV drivetrain need energy density/efficiency (moar range)

I had the same thought. They’d like to become leader but they’ve moved way too slow. They’re a good 10 years behind.
But they’re a big company. Perhaps they can turn things around.
I hope so ! We still need a 1998 Camry equivalent in an EV.
Well there is the Chevy Bolt. Which is a very good deal on a pretty good range EV. But yeah… It’s still a Chevy
Fair, but basically not sold in Europe.
Yes, very good point there.
Will actually Toyota had the best tech for many years did hybrid cars employing batteries and electrical engines.
I’m not so sure that they’re behind in terms of know how for EV, quite the opposite actually.
