Lots of EV news out of Toyota this morning. First, & perhaps most importantly, Toyota & Subaru have announced a joint venture to develop a Class C SUV BEV platform, with each company creating their own vehicle from the platform. This is a small part of "Aiming to Popularize BEVs"

With the announcement of the 2026 BZ, you can see all of their behind the scenes efforts coming to fruition. 314 miles of range, 338 HP, fast charging, a quality, beautiful interior. And components that I've had a Tesla engineer tell me are 10 years ahead of the market.

People have been knocking Toyota's EV approach for years without understanding it. They weren't willing to lose gobs of money on EVs. They weren't willing to put their customers in cars with half-ass batteries for the sake of range. (1/2)

I've had it trying to contact @Lexus dealerships directly. Received nothing but runaround. If anyone has a contact at a Lexus dealership, preferably on the East Coast, message me. I'm ready to buy. This has been a terrible experience so far.

@SpeedSportLife Had the Prius as a rental for a week and it took me a couple of days to finally figure out how the hell the engineers expected me to posture myself in the seat to see the whole gauge display.

Design decisions were made and they weren’t good ones

@Spottyroo It has worked on this car for 20 years. I think the design has proved itself.

Customer states - The A/C doesn’t work, wants to know what the issue is. Well I can’t even turn it on because for some reason touch screen only climate control was a good idea to someone.

In case you haven't noticed, momentum for EVs in the marketplace is all but dead, while hybrid interest has skyrocketed. PriusChat traffic is headed back to where it was when gas was $4 a gallon nationwide. cnbc.com/amp/2024/09/10…

Lowered my Prius Prime and the fender gap feels much more appropriate now.

20% of Tesla's gross profit is from regulatory credits. This means that the other manufacturers (ie Toyota) accounted for 1/5 of Tesla's profits. We haven't seen a number that high since back before they had any cars widely available (early Model S days). Disaster.

@Robby_DeGraffAP @SpeedSportLife One interesting angle to highlight would be how in the world Honda gets away with increasing the cost of the Odyssey to the point where it's within $1,000 of the similarly spec'd Sienna. I'm gonna guess it's due to the scarcity of the Sienna, but paying $42k for the EX-L is crazy

@Robby_DeGraffAP Robby, you know this isn't a new generation. It's simply a light mid cycle refresh. You're not gonna see drivetrain changes mid cycle. And @SpeedSportLife , the wait-list for the Sienna should tell you that hybridization is high on buyers lists.

@GaytonaUSA I know there are many forums where this sort of response is encouraged, if not taught. It's not helpful for anyone, including the stakeholders in the forum because of SEO potential. I've actively worked against this atmosphere at PC & hope you never came across it on a visit.
