I'm only buying Toyota because it didn't get sucked into the stupid EV craze. They have common sense. The U.S. doesn't even have the electrical grid to currently manage many parts of the U.S., especially California. How tf are we going to introduce a product that will require electricity, straining the electrical grid further beyond its capacity? It's fkin nonsense.
Not to mention.. the number of EVs (Teslas) that were having battery failures during the Winter in the midwest. And this last Winter was mild.
Been driving a VW ID4 for 3 years in Ireland. They're lovely to drive. Zero battery issues, zero charging issues. The future is electric.
