Featured Toyota’s Chairman Shared This Controversial Opinion About EV Sports Cars

Without electricity, a cash register may not work. But even an airplane can be fueled.

 

A lot of people don't have an expansive, exclusive roof of their own, nor the re$ources, Bob.

 

How did the diesel get into the truck?

More importantly, since the topic is private electric cars, how does the fuel for ICE cars get out of a station's underground tank? How does the petroleum get from the ground to the refinery? How does the refinery make diesel and gasoline out of it?

Even if getting fuel into a vehicle is possible, a large scale black out will disrupt many functions that will impact travel. Many flights in Spain and Portugal were cancelled by the black out for example.

 

So again...

Tesla has the most successful EV product...and everyone turns on them. Toyota says it's not interested in EVs...and everyone turns on them.

Buy what you want, let others buy what they want...and quit whining.

 

Sports cars are a tiny niche market.

Should Toyota make a sports car or not is not gonna impact the bottom line much. Even at Porsche, it has been the SUVs and sedans they make that brings in the cash.

 

You can argue endlessly about which is better, petrol cars or electric cars. You can also argue about which hand is more important for a person, the left or the right, which woman is more beautiful, a blonde or a brunette.

Humanity quickly gets used to various conveniences, but it is always worth leaving yourself a choice of the path you can take.
