Well, we will wait and see, I'd be very happy to see Toyota join the party and finally release a good EV. It is not quite right to say that "they haven't released anything", there is e.g, the Toyota bZ4X, widely regarded as a really bad car (1). And other EVs that have made no impact (2) 1) https://cleantechnica.com/2022/06/26/toyota-bz4x-first-review-mediocre-at-best/ https://cleantechnica.com/2022/06/26/toyota-bz4x-first-revie... 2) https://www.toyota.co.uk/electric https://www.toyota.co.uk/electric

And other EVs that have made no impact (2) So technically they have "joined the party". Granted they don't seem fully committed yet and don't seem to be trying very hard - based on the review you linked, they have QC problems ... on the wheels; and they haven't put much marketing muscle behind the others. At least they have a foot in the door.

  Technically yes, and _only_ technically yes. I don't see Toyota bZ4Xs on the roads, no-one is looking forward to them. Do you know what a "compliance car" or "compliance vehicle" is? It's not a serious intent to be in that market.
