2 - 3% of total car sales are made up of EV.

Toyota alone sold around 10mil cars a year for 2018, the whole EV industry shipped 5mil.

Btw full EV car is easier to make then traditional fuel powertrain. There are currently close to 500 full EV models with completed prototype. But due to low margin, intensely fierce competition and shortages in batteries supply, most company do not want to go that route for now, unless there is subsidies from Gov such as in China.

Even Dyson can make EV,so do you think its so hard for Toyota to make one ? Its whether is commercially viable to market it.

Dyson have cancelled their plans to make EV.

Thing with EV is battery cost. It's coming down but not that much yet. Obviously still got long way to go before a simple short range EV becomes cheap
