It's basically a badge engineered Aion V and it seems Toyota is okay with the coachbuilder business model.

The exterior design is way better than the Aion V.

That's a Maserati issue.

The supercar/hypercar market has never been bigger or hotter.

If it's tied at all in terms of provenance to the GT3 car, which it is, if that thing does well at all, speculators will have been justified in snapping them all up.

I realize that this is only for the Chinese market but I would not mind seeing it, or models with similar technology, made available for the North America market. Offer more BEVs and let's not worry that they are not yet the "best" models that Toyota can offer. I believe that Toyota should be less conservative and risk averse; take some chances and be willing to listen and learn from their customers.

If this technology is coming in a new RAV4 EV, good. Build a Corolla EV also, based upon the the bZ3, and/or build a Camry EV also. Let's not waste time complaining that the TNGA-C or TNGA-K are not ideal platforms for EVs; these are only interim, stepping-stone models as the EV-dedicated platform is developed. Build it and they (customers) will come.

Tesla is in deep deep trouble and it's unclear what it can do to save itself. Not even Nissan, a brand on the verge of bankruptcy can drop 50% sales volume in just 2 months.

I said before Tesla's brand image is not real. People only supported the brand because they can make money buying their stocks.

Yeah, well, this is what happens when we pretend the stock market is a real economy.

He writes like he has brain damage.

It's exactly how all the lowest performing people, with the poorest impulse control I know communicate.

Wild. Like the societal equivalent of kidney or liver failure.
You're assuming Trump wrote the note. :rolleyes:
