Notice they are not going ALL-IN for EVs.

But they are heavily into Hybrids, which is the smart way to electrify cars and trucks.

Hybrids have generally been very successful in the market. They do not use lithium ion batteries and they get incredible gas mileage.

If I had excess money I would invest very heavily in Toyota given the company stance that they are committed to continuing their entire line of automobiles (ICE, EV, Hydrogen, and Hybrid).

This is a recipe for success and expanded market share.

EV’s are struggling and I will go out on a limb here and predict that some US brands are going to destroy themselves by following the mandates of politicians. There is a pretty hard market cap on EV’s AND there are simply too many problems - first and foremost, costs.

Hybrids

Just another way of burning the fuel on board.
