  This. Electric cars are currently at the dialup internet phase of adoption. It's unlikely the current leaders will be the future leaders. Nor will the current technology be the stuff we will use in the future.

    Sure, but I reckon the leader is even less likely to be Toyota than Tesla.

      Toyota is much more likely to be a major player in the future than Tesla. I don't think Toyota plans on being a leader of anything.

  In some market, specially high tech rich markets, the adoption is already far, far higher. The car industry is not the same as the internet. Its not new industry, its a technology shift inside the existing industry. And plans have to be made 5 years ahead or more, and we know that pretty much every major player is going for EV and most of them have basically stopped working on hydrogen. The idea that we are are stupid and Toyota is smart ignore all the other companies that together are far larger then Toyota have picked differently. That why I hate the 'oh random guy thinks he knows more then X company'. You literally can not have an opinion without disagreeing with either Toyota or VW. We see basically no growth in hydrogen vehicles or hydrogen fuel stations, not even announcements of new cars or infrastructure. Building the need infrastructure is a decade long heavy investment project, it doesn't just come out of nowhere.
