Toyota has huge advantage in drivetrain (engine + gearbox).

It's tough for them to throw those away & start fresh.

While I certainly not agree on single EV is as dirty as three hybrids, I do agree that there is no rush to phase out ICE car too quickly...

BUT, Toyota really should start more invests in EV as EV really is the future here.

Yes, the manufacturing of electric vehicles (EVs) does contribute to higher carbon emissions than the production of gasoline-powered cars. While EVs have a lower carbon footprint during operation, their manufacturing process, particularly the production of batteries, involves energy-intensive extraction, processing, and transportation of raw materials, leading to significant emissions.

Almost 4 tonnes of CO2 are released during the production process of a single electric car and, in order to break even, the vehicle must be used for at least 8 years to offset the initial emissions by 0.5 tonnes of prevented emissions annually.

Heard they negotiatiing to buy over bankrupt Neta.

Insta EV tech transfer and their factories ready to roll out toyoda new EVs…

But not sure if CCP will allow a foreign co to buy over motherland EV brand

Already Toyota partnership with GAC.
And going into production is the bZ7, all-electric sedan which debut at the 2025 Shanghai Auto Show.
Designed specifically for the Chinese market through the GAC-Toyota joint venture.
The bZ7 is the first Toyota to feature Huawei's HarmonyOS cockpit system and possibly the Huawei ADS advanced driving system.

EV is making the city cleaner, almost no carbon dioxide when travel around if compare with ICE car. Even with electricity generation, the power plant can use carbon capture storage to store all the carbon emission and emit lesser compare to ICE car.

Break even sure boleh more than 8 years, even the old tesla car battery was reuse as solar battery storage. The most crucial question is how do we recycle all the battery, until now no any big demand in the market and causing company reluctant to pour resources in.

Hydrogen until now has not proven its worth in US, especially in California, a lot of the Mirai owner has complain hydrogen is more expensive than petrol/diesel. The only way for future is Green hydrogen.

The hydrogen temporarily station at Putrajaya cost RM15mil to set up, just for 50kg storage only, the cost of petrol station cost mostly about RM3-4mil (large one), one DC charger maybe cost RM200k for 2 bay. How to breakeven in long run with the high storage cost of hydrogen.

And just by selling AT gearbox to other car manufacturers = huge profit.

Major gearbox manufacturers like Aisin & ZF, had thousands of patent registered.

China car manufacturers if wanna R&D their own AT gearbox, is at least 15-20 years behind.

Production is one thing, storage and transportation cost a lot more. Problem is who is going to develop all the hydrogen infrastructure for the whole sarawak. A large scale of hydrogen need a lot more tank for storage.

Toyota does not go into EV all out because Toyota does not believe that the EV is the future but more on hybrid for now. I think Toyota is working together with BMW developing the hydrogen engine.

People just does not realize that most electrical power is generated from coal and the pollution from coal is much deadlier than previously thought. Study shows that the the pollution from coal to power the EV is more than the pollution generated by car powered by petrol. Furthermore, soon car batteries probably will become another pollution problem. laugh.gif

One of my friend said, the only way that EV can be really green, apart of battery pollution is when the method of generate electricity is green as well...

Green method include hydro, solar and nuclear.

But those green method really not yet as established as coal...

I think ultimately Toyota ops for Hydrogen technology as their green technology is due to they can use back most of existing gasoline ICE engine parts for Hydrogen ICE Cars which in turn maintain the current Eco-system that they had built over the years while still cater to the green part...
