Didnt they pull back from the EV market and switch back to hybrid?

They should get their shit straight first.

Exactly, it's only this year that Toyota even made a competitive BEV! It's insane they've managed to remain the #1 global car manufacturer while being completely out of the BEV market?!

I suppose Japan will have to learn how to live with this new competition, just like Europe and USA had to in the 60's when Japan entered and disrupted the market.
