In reply to Khurram. "When clearly an EV is powered from national energy" So, in conclusion; the more patriotic a country is, the more cleaner their infrastructure and environment?

In reply to Khurram. "When clearly an EV is powered from national energy..." That means EVs are very patriotic! on the other hand, ICE cars are powered by national fossil fuel reserves. Or do you dig it out your self, refine it and then use it? "Toyota seem to be doing it in a way that is causing problem to certain forces and to these forces Toyota’s success with customers is also sticking in their sides like a thorn." You may have a point there because not only do Chinese companies like BYD have to make EVs for themselves, Due to the poor standing of Toyota in the EV race, they now have to make cars for the japs as well. That is double pressure on them just to support the Jap businesses.

Well, it is not just Toyota that is involved in spreading misinformation, even people claiming not to have a direct interest in EVs are misguiding public as regard to it not leaving an environmental impact. When clearly an EV is powered from national energy, the high content off which comes from fossil fuels and on top of that the process required for recycling a dead EV battery is not common and too energy intensive. Therefore, everyone is doing business, Toyota seem to be doing it in a way that is causing problem to certain forces and to these forces Toyota’s success with customers is also sticking in their sides like a thorn.

Honda needs to do it if they want to stay afloat. They have been shuttering their factories here & there. Honda has usually been less conservative and brought new technologies to the mainstream such as iDSI, VTEC before others. That has been their only USP, if they lose that, what else they got to offer?

well this guy seems to be poles apart from Akio Toyoda. he thinks right and will take Honda to lead. Toyota has a dumb CEO and he will bring his grand father’s business to knees
