Anything Toyota latches themselves to eventually dies.

Toyota and hybrid vehicles - very weak entry into the market

Toyota and hydrogen powered vehicles - dead on arrival

Toyota’s failure to electrify fleet

Now they want autonomous vehicles? Wonder who backs out first? Waymo or Toyota once they realize what a joke Toyota is.

> Toyota and hybrid vehicles - very weak entry into the market

This statement doesn't seem to track with reality. The Prius was one of the first major hyrbids and it sold like hotcakes. You see them everywhere. Their current offerings include more hybrids than ever, in fact it seems a majority of their vehicles have a hyrbid option today, including the Tacoma and Tundra.

Isn't the rav4 hybrid the best selling non truck in the US? The comments on this story amaze me with how inaccurate people are about Toyota hybrids.

Best selling company year after year. Hybrids are growing faster than EVs.

This source seems to show that hybrid and EV sales are pretty comparable?
