The only problem with Japan is they do not want to let go of their traditional thinking, this can be seen in any sector. This leads to older people thinking they are always right and in turn ruins it for everyone in the end. This mentality should change soon or it sounds trouble.
You have a good point. In Japan they call it the escalator system, which basically mean that if you just stand still and don't rock the boat, you will be promoted eventually. This is further fuelled by the fact that it is incredibly hard to fire people in Japan. However, companies are waking up and are reshuffling their sometimes incompetent leadership. Also, worth noting is that companies like Toyota might be lagging behind in some sectors, but they are still the world's most successful car company in history.
Let’s not forget that it was not Tesla, but TOYOTA who pioneered the hybrid initially. It was Toyota who demonstrated that hybrids could actually work, and it was Toyota who actually made the hybrid sell well. Tesla may have made the first EV that caught the public eye, but they did not make it truly popular in the market. Otherwise, Tesla would have been one of the most popular cars in America, but they’re not even close. It was also Toyota who pioneered hydrogen fuel cell technology. Toyota is doing all of these things and is still being innovative in the market, but they’re also not being stupid either. They didn’t survive all this time by just hopping on the trends of their competitors. Toyota knows better. They didn’t hop on the EV bandwagon because they knew it wasn’t going to be a great seller in the market, and they were right. The world isn’t ready for EVs yet, and EVs sure as hell aren’t ready for the world yet either. They will be in time, but that time is not now. As a side note, we should be putting more investment and effort into figuring out efuels so we can get the existing billions of cars on the road to a carbon neutral state (or at least close to it)
I think one of the reason japanese ev lagging behind because of japanese old elites refused to step down and passed to newer generation. Akio toyoda is very good example for that
@@chrissmith2114 EVs are the future, 80% to 90%efficiency conversion vs 40% at best for ICE or Hybrids, no anti pollution devices in powertrain, and Battery advances almost everyday, and simple powertrain not even needing a transmission . KISS . Japan Auto is screwed Big time, by the Chinese by 2030 when Toyotas market share gets halved,.5 years from today.
@@AuralioCabal-nl8gi EV have proved to be much more unreliable and costly to fix than ICE, in fact many are insurance write-offs from slightest bump due to any slight damage to battery casing making insurance companies write them off. You are ignoring the fact that in both USA and Europe the EV market is dropping rapidly, and will drop even further and faster now governments are making EV owners pay their way with congestion charges and annual rod taxes.
I have to correct you here, Japan not building EV has nothing to do with them being early adopter of hybrid, if it is just due to entenchment, why would they invest more on hydrogen which is even further away from their technology base? the real reason why Japan does not invest in EV is 3 reason: 1stly, Japan cannot make money out of EV because the bulk of EV cost is in batteries and Japan just doesn't have the material to make them in japan, they have to be imported at great cost. Tesla literally FLIES it battery material from China to US, because the material breakdown quickly if not processed into a battery, so they can't even ship it by boat! Japan just don't want to do that. 2ndly, EV requires less precision parts which mean alot of suppliers would be out of the job, you can't just turn mechanical engineers into chemical engineers to make batteries. 3rdly, EV use electricity and Japan does not have energy independence. it is far easier to import oil than it is to import electricity. to install charging station in rest station is not a difficult thing, Japan real reason for not doing so is because they really don't want to add to their electricity consumption after recovering from fukushima that has dented their nuclear power output. in short, EV are not something Japan can be strong at, their decision is not a mistake but and understanding of their national weakness in which EV would neither bring profit nor job and would not really address their energy shortage problem. they would have to fix their energy grid way before they can consider EV.
Toyoda, the boss of Toyota, looked straight into the camera and declared he normally lied. Normally? Ev sales in China are up some 40% this year. Your mother is ashamed of your lies.
J-phone was a way to "protect" japanese market from competition which then leads them to exit the phone market ALTOGETHER while rivals can ENTER their 4G and 5G market. soon it will be ONLY ICE cars in Japan only. TOTAL BAN on EV . Japan is a joke now.
@@misosoppa3279tbe reason is that breaking into Markets that have basically been dominated is a costly andnvery unreliable investment. Challening Apple and samsung while competing,with Lenovo and Co for the priviledge of having to constantly try to onenup oneself? Nah. Thats the Reason China Pushed for EV. The ICE Market is impenetrable. So they basically invested in creating a whole new market and sit on it. Jury is out about if it will stick. Remember that EV Sales currently are driven by government Mandate, not success in convincing Customers. The whole issue about having to also invest into a supporting infrastructure is another reason the EV revolution is not rolling smoothly.
Here is why Japan won't catch up to China in EV: 1) The ship has sailed. The tech gap between China and Japan in EV is very wide. It is very hard to catch up to incumbent tech leader without disruptive tech. 2) One of the easiest way to catch up is of course by having price war. That what the Japanese did to rise against north american and european competitors in the 70s and 80s. But they can't be seriously trying to compete with China on price right? 3) So how did China manufacture EV so cheap? Bleeding edge manufacturing tech with industrial AI, integrated supply chain, best logistic in the world. This is crossing many industries and gov sectors. China is the best at this game, I don't see anyone right now can catch up on this. 4) While catching up is not entirely impossible, this last reason is the nail in the coffin for Japan: People. Japan's ageing population and rigid culture prevented it from leading all new tech breakthroughs. Japan has no leading internet company, Japan has no leading com tech manufacturer that produces next gen comm equipment, Japan has no leading AI company, etc. Without people hungry for success, the gov will make conservative decision, the company will just keep employing the old, and the young will be delinquent or disillusioned. In conclusion, don't bet on Japanese car manufacturer in the future. Japan will be excelling on niche products or parts that goes on to cars and various tech. It can no longer create or push new tech. Its allies are all declining colonial power and it fails to compete in global south market when China is competing. It cannot sell its high tech product to China, but its allies has no manufacturing base to use its industrial products. Coupled with its shrinking national power, population and economy....Japan is in a very bad place.
the reason china can reach low prices is because alot of their material processing are byproduct of other industries... Japan tried many years ago to build a battery supply chain with Australia and they never manage to breakeven on that venture even after decade of investment.
@@lagrangewei Japan in general just fails in many overseas projects. They are not capable of building simple infrastructure overseas anymore let alone build an entire industry. Many of their infrastructure projects like railways and airports ends up with huge delays, cost overun, and recently those projects either got cancelled or taken over by China.
I don't agree with point 1, car consumers are one of the most conservative lot, Japanese car brand still command a lot of value. But they need to fix their gap fast, because once BYD, Cherry become household names, it's bye-bye Toyota, Honda. Toyota has been investing in interesting tech such as solid state batteries, so they can catch up quickly if they think it's the way to the future. But the current BEV market meltdown might make them complacent and loose the momentum.
@@turtlesoup8134 What the fuck are you talking about? I would rather be driving on a bridge a Japanese company built then on one a Chinese company built. Do some research and study about Chinese tofu dreg buildings. Chinese infrastructure is crumbling in alarming rates.
They wouldn't catch up in battery and EV in decades to come. Their electrical infrastructure is outdated and just enough to support for regular people. electrical cost is very high in Japan
the narrative that Chinese battery technology is best is pure cope propaganda. If Chinese batteries like CATL and BYD are indeed better than Japanese Panasonic or any other countries's no. 1 let us say, like these useful idiots and muppets claim why do we not see these Chinese batteries in any other uses? Boeing's latest passenger liner B787 Dreamliner uses advanced Lithium-Ion battery from the Japanese firm GS Yuasa. It is not European, Chinese Korean anything. Why did Boeing not adopt Chinese CATL or BYD batteries if they were so much better? Even if Boeing did not adopt Chinese batteries for national security reason, why was CATL and BYD's advanced battery not used on Chinese airliner C919?? Japanese navy's latest diesel electric submarine have the world's first and so far the only use of advanced Lithium-Ion battery to increase its submerge time by Matsushita Panasonic. Why doesn't the Chinese Navy's submarine also use advanced CATL and BYD batteries? Why do they keep using old-fashioned lead-acid battery?? Japanese high speed rail have Toshiba's SCiB Lithium-titanate battery that allows it to travel in emergency without the overhead electricity. It is the only high-speed rail in the world to have this feature. Why doesn't Chinese high speed railroad have this?
also u do realize LFP lithium-phosphate chemistry patents are not held by BYD or other Chinese firm but rather by CNRS of France right? BYD and CATL adopted it early due to signing of the exclusive licensing agreement. In fact each time BYD builds Blade, a portion of the money goes to CNRS for licensing. Now that the exclusive licensing agreeement and the patent exclusivity is coming to end, expect more LFP batteries from Japan, Europe and US
@@miraphycs7377 Patents and the manufacturing machines are two different things, China excels in creating machine that produces batteries cheaper, faster and better.
Toyota and Japan have failed miserably for not adopting Nissan's lead in BEVs well over a decade ago. Today, China & Korea have surpassed Japan in every BEV metric.
I’d say Japanese car makers have avoided the EV nightmare. They just dipped their toes in the EV pool. The nightmare is for the auto makers who jumped in with both feet. Consumers will dictate the market, not government mandates.
I saw a report on how Japan's charging infrastructure is killing EV sales. What little infrastructure they have is dwindling because some of the charging companies have gone bankrupt. Chargers aren't being maintained so an EV owner's range is severely limited.
BYD is cheap (€25,000 in Europe) and they managed to pass EuroNCAP, so they're probably safe enough. In Vienna, there are chargers built into lamp posts on the streets. I live in an apartment, no place to charge here. I've been waiting 2 years for a new Prius, hope to have it in September. I've heard that US-built Toyota hybrids aren't as good as the Japanese-built ones, so i was reluctant to settle for one of those.
@@konichivalue Ev's in the 1800s were for rich snobs and they are still the same in 2024 compared to combustion the real reason combustion took over cause model T was far more affordable than any ev plus better range than any ev at the time. this is still true today ev's were always for the elites and its why they probley will never take off they arent the everyday mans vehicle.

It is the future in long term. By 2030, most (90%) of the vehicle sales will be Electric, Without any government subsidy or mandate. This is simply because EV will be cheeper than similar ICE cars (although operational cost of EV is already far less than fuel cost, but by 2030 even the upfront cost will be less than ICE) BTW, In China cost of EV is hardly 10% expensive than similar ICE cars. Of course cost of EV in rest of the world is much heigher, this is because of high tarrifs or poor local supply chain. EV will hut price parity in China very soon (2 years max). Hitting price parity in USA will require few more years, although it will happen before 2030. 2nd, There will be no range anxity. Because even today there are cars available mainly in China that can charge upto 80% within 10mins (Li Mega for example) By 2030, this ultra fast charging will be Mainstream around the world and the charging speed will even improve further by then. And 10min charging time is good enough. Because after driving 300kms you will anyways stop for 10min to pee and refreshment. And till to get back from Toilet your car gets additional 300km range. Drive next 300km and then repeat the cycle. 💥 This is the reason EV is the future even without any government incentive or mandate. Yes in short term government incentive is helping them, but they will be compatative on their own By 2030.
It depends on the battery technology, like all tech, it get's better over time, so in the next 5 to 10 years they can make batteries cheaper, better range and faster charge, I don't see why EV is not the future.
@@sarahkhan2310 Yeah it’s all cool Until You give your info to the Chinese Government so Xi can lock you and Unitl you say pro communist talking points and later get stranded in you EV Because it had 500mi range in the advertisement when in reality it only had 150mi and later catch fire because it didn’t like you posting that Xi is Winnie the Pooh.
No doubt EV is the future. I have an EV and gas guzzler 4x4 at home. Both cars were bought brand new in the less than 9 months ago. Those people who said EV is not the future never driven let alone own one. The EV saves me a lot of time every week by not detouring and lining up on gas station. Just plug it in whenever I don't use the car and I have a fully charged car most of the time. Of course there are few occasions EV is simply not adequate for now i.e. 4wd and towing hence I have the 4x4. But for vast majority of car transport, it's more than adequate and much more convenient.
@@konichivalue Having the ability to charge at home makes owning EV much easier. If you cannot plug in your EV at home then the only other choice is a public charger. It will make owning an EV harder but not impossible. My brother has EV and is unable to charge at home so he only relies on public chargers around him. In his case It has been two years since he switched his only car to EV and he has no plan to go back to the ICE car. The EV is simply a better car to drive, more comfortable, so effortless in acceleration and much cheaper than paying for petrol.
I think the next wave is coming. The lowest EV now is $AUD35k. With Tesla about to launch the 2, cars like the seagull lurking, and ever newer batteries coming onto the scene, it is easy to see that this time next year it will be $AUD25k for a decent EV. Then, where will Toyota be? And, the resale value of the mild hybrid car bought today will also plummet...
10 years ago, I never thought that I'd buy a chinese car. I've always thought my first car would be a toyota. Now I'm checking out Wuling and BYD for my family needs
Perhaps Panasonic should start an automating company? They have a lot of experince in battery tech, they are a tech company overall. They have the chance to start fresh in the business.
there’s two common responses to the EV industry complete from the traditional Auto industry beginning with denial saying that it’s just a fat and it will go away, or doubling down and saying there were some amazing new internal combustion engine that’s going to blow away the competition. It seems that the Japanese are in the latter camp.
Japan knows a thing or two about making cars and how impractical pure BEVs are.. If Japan needs to save its future then it's big carmakers needs to stay away from pure electric vehicles. They should either go for hybrid or Ammonia or some other alternative fuel rather than battery.
Japanese auto industry has to accept that to stay relevant. They must change with the times. The car is a measurement of how advanced a country is technically. Innovation is they key to the future. Otherwise, you will lose out to your competitors. The age of oil is over.
All Toyota are doing is giving the market what it wants if you were to to put a petrol a diesel and an electric car in the same room with the same features and no substitutes then the ev would always be the last to sell
That is a BS political argument. I don't see one person riding a horse to work! I don't know of anyone buying stereo amplifiers built with vacum tube technology.

The US is a car culture. Few would want to be packed like sardines into a tin can as they do in Japan. Also, public transit is very different for the Japanese than it is for Americans. Their buses and trains are safe, whereas, ours are packed with homeless, mentally ill, thugs, and other gangbangers. In L.A., people are being assaulted and killed while using public transit, or while waiting on train platforms, or bus stops. It's a huge issue.
they were never in the race, as is ev manufacturer's are suffering huge losses facing competition, dwindling sales of their products..the japanese could of made the right move to wait and work on a more sustainable, less exploding, lighter and less toxic batteries.
Meh, they'll be fine. Just because people are buying cheap Chinese EVs now does not mean every Chinese EV maker will be successful in the long run. Just take the example of Xiaomi and mobile phone sales. Xiaomi entered India (my country) and briefly became no. 1 in some quarters in the past, overtaking Samsung. They achieved that by purposely selling phones for very cheap. Not because they wanted to, but they wanted to kill the competitors. Asus smartphones, Sony smartphones, and other Chinese brands like Meizu -- all exited India after a few years. But Xiaomi were making losses for many years and knew that they couldn't go on like this. So they began raising prices in India. Result? They're now in 4th place and sales are down significantly, and Samsung is back to the no. 1 spot. Even Apple is gaining marketshare in India despite higher prices. That's the thing about Chinese brands. Many buy them only because they're cheap. Not because the quality is amazing or the longterm reliability is excellent. And that's where Japanese brands are different. The one thing Japanese brands are known for is RELIABILITY. There's no shortage of exploding EV footage out of China. There's no shortage of data show how badly EVs lose value in the second hand resale market in a short period of time. Toyota and Honda are not short-sighted. Eventually consumers will realize the downsides to current EV technology and the longterm quality of Chinese cars. Not to mention the fact China's primary source of electricity to power all their EVs is still COAL! Next imagine how China is going to recycle all those EV batteries. The Japanese car brands are not going anywhere.
You have a very good point, and might be right, but cars are a different beast to phones. For ICE cars, successful companies have incrementally improved over decades and new competitors have no chance except for niche areas. Chinese companies have the upper hand in this strategy as they've been fully on board on EVs for the longest (except Tesla), so their tech should be better than most competitors. It could be that EVs don't follow the same rules as ICE cars and Japanese makers can jump in when they consider the tech to be ready, but I have a hunch they can't...
*ALL* of legacy auto in the United States, Japan and Europe are finished as they ignored the inevitable EV revolution in the 2000s. Unlike the Chinese government and the Chinese auto industry. And you wonder why China is the world’s largest manufacturer of cars, and apart from Tesla, produce the world’s most advanced EVs. The morons in the West and Japan only have themselves to blame for the diabolical and terminal situation they collectively face. They all denied reality and chose not to lay the groundwork for the 2020s EV revolution. There is no stopping the Chinese EV juggernaut whatsoever. Volkswagen and Toyota can make all the PHEVs they want. It changes nothing as pure EVs are the only future.
India has no oil , it has to import the stuff , sunshine is everywhere in India, you even have one of the biggest solar farms, but the Chinese make Solar panels like no tomorrow, and they are the world's biggest battery producers, cars and CPhones are two different things, India is bad at manufacturing things compared to the Chinese,on top of being corrupt and begging for BRIBES , just ask Elon who cancelled his meeting with Modi and went to China instead recently,India wanted a $500 MILLION BRIBE from Tesla for a factory.WTF🤔
China is moving away from Coal it's Wind and Solar industryand Battery Storage is like no other, Tesla just opened the Mega Pack factory to produce MegaPack LFP battery Storage for Grid applications , this is for Worldwide and Asia Sales, keep up with the News!.India wants BRIBES to open factories in India, but India is good at supporting Russia and DESPOT Putin in its UNJUSTIFIED War with Ukraine, CHEAP OIL being the REASON,
EV's are not the future, hybrids are. Until battery tech is green enough and can out perform gas cars in terms of longivity, EV's should start their reign, but otherwise hybrid or gas.

People around the world still like and want Japanese cars, especially the so-called JDM. Therefore, the World of EVs still needs Japanese EVs to make EVs highest popular globally. Japanese automakers knows this point well. So they can choose to not produce EVs. They can choose to produce only fuel cars and mild-hybrid cars as before. People all over the world still buy Japanese cars as before.
Yes, Japanese cars are very popular. People will continue to buy Japanese ICE cars and hybrids...until they can't. Take the state of California for example (it's in the US if you're not American), by 2035, all new cars must be zero emission. California is very lucrative market for car makers since it is the state with the most registered autos in the US.
Perhaps, they are the smart ones! We are now seeing the craziness of the EV market coming through. Who in their right mind would want to buy a 2nd hand EV, knowing it will be out of date within 3 years from new? EV makers are bringing out these bland cars with up to date batteries every year, thus the older models of 2 or 3 years back are half as good, battery wise! I wouldn't want to buy a 50kw car that becomes a 150kw within 2 or 3 years, so where is the 2nd hand market? If there is one, then it's just the battery you are buying, because the car itself is worthless! You buy a 4 year old EV, have 3 or 4 years left before it's a useless battery, unless you want to keep charging it every day to drove 50 miles! Then you have the nasty expense of buying a new battery! If an EV cost say £40k, the battery £20k (when needed) and I 'bought' a 4 year old 2nd hand EV, I'd expect the seller to be paying me £10k to take it of their hands, not me paying them!
Nonsense, why do people buy less efficient older second hand ICE cars that get worse miles per gallon than their modern counterparts? Modern ICE cars also come with anti-stall, electric handbrakes and other mod cons your 2012 Honda Civic doesn't have yet people are still buying the inferior older cars second hand, how can this be? Second hand car market is driven by necessity, most people can't afford a new car and only have a couple of 1000 to spend. For this reason the 2nd hand EV market will be very busy for years to come. I swear every single argument people try to use against EV's applies to Gas cars even more so.
Toyota is simply the best car. Hybrid is the future. Choice is the future. EV - is only 1 choice. Hybrid is at least 3 choices: LPG, GAS, Electric 3 in 1 technology.
The Chinese will whip Toyotas A$$ , by 2030 China will have more than Toyotas market share, their mistake? They sold their TSLA shares about 8 years ago.😂LOL
China has the upper hand because of their abundant nateral resources of battery making materials like lithium and cobalt. Car making countries like Japan doesnt want to held hostage by China because of battery supplies. Tbh no other countries wanted to be in that situation. The charging infrastructure is undesireable compared to the gas pump. It takes time to charge up an EV. Next thing is price. If everything about the EV cost more, there will be a slow adoption for sure. For Japan they are not worried at all and their focus is on other energy resources.Very often people do not look at the waste problem until it becomes a major problem. Battery waste cannot be ignored. Building an EV charging infrastructure and battery recycling should be done together. Otherwise countries will be relying on China to solve their battery waste problems in the future.
I think the foreseeable future Hybrids will rule and Toyota is the leader by far in hybrids. Ev in America is cutting prices to sell especially Tesla. Toyota is safe.
@@konichivalueBYD is the leader by far in hybrids, so much so that Toyota has licensed its hybrid platform. Quite a few other Chinese automakers aren’t too far behind BYD in hybrid tech and all of them are way ahead of Toyota’s obsolete tech.
Panasonic from Japan makes batteries for Tesla’s high end models. These Japanese auto makers just don’t want to go full EV even though they have the suppliers to do so because their spare parts business will go down the drain.
Obviously an EV is the best option.. 30 minutes to refill... 150k usd spare bateries... less than 10years lifespan... take pollution from cities to 3rd world mines... and slave labor... just think about this, a 1950 cadillac eldorado can still drive (even earlier 1910 models are functiona).. can a EV Cadillac lyriq last that long?
Bullshit. There are hundreds of thousands of EVs around the world which have travelled 500,000km with their original battery packs and electric motors. An Australian household with 2 petrol cars will spend a massive AUD $84,000 just on fuel and engine maintenance alone over 20 years. An EV powered by home solar has zero running costs. Nothing. You cannot beat a zero dollar cost. Ever.
I don't think EV infrastructure would work. This is the REALITY. 1. Takes a lot of time to charge. 2. The electricity from the EV still comes from Fossil Fuel (hidden from the masses). 3. The batteries are still an environmental hazzard (hidden from the masses). The batteries themselves are sometimes as expensive as the motor and it lasts shorter. 4. The batteries does not store enough power so it can travel equal to or farther than a petrol/diesel vehicle. 5. If there is a battery leak, the fire is UNSTOPABBLE.... way more dangerous than fuel. 6. Related to number 4, the batteries doesn't hold electricity as efficient as petrol/diesel. It degrades faster.. it also adds another layer of electricity transition from electric station to battery. Therefore, resulting to more energy wasted. Very unpredictable range.. you don't know when you are going to run out of power (not confidence inspiring). 7. The electric engines are still not that efficient. The efficiency is still the same as far as electric motor 100 years ago. There's no really ground breaking technology introduced here. It's still the same electric motor principle being applied. 8. Electric vehicles are much expensive (not sure why, maybe it's aritificially made expensive because it seems "new".. even though the manufacturing is way way simpler than combustion engine.). To prove all of this let me ask. Is there an electric vehicle that is as efficient as a petrol/diesel engine and loads fuel as fast. The answer is NO. If there is, it has compromises. Eletric vehicles are best on the "personal" transportation category. Like e-scooters, electric skateboards, monowheels, E-bikes... etc.. It simply can't compete with the Big Boys.
Come on Japan build a car engine that runs on H2O. EV are as dangerous if not the worst for the environment. The world need cars that runs on water, Toyota you're almost there don't give up.
If you know the Japanese people as a country you will know how competitive Japan is with China. Through cruel and bloody wars. When Japan started sensing Chinas dominance in EVs they tried something different to save face. Now they are behind like everyone else except Tesla in the tech.
While a Prius for instance is impressive and useful, I don't think we can say this in a black and white fashion. My take: BEVs can be used where they meet the requirements of the drivers, which can be vastly different. When they don't fit, hybrids are useful. Little personal story: A hybrid helped me making my mind up, now I drive a BEV. Why is that? I drove a plug-in hybrid for 3 weeks as a company car. I noticed the extreme difference in driving pleasure and softness when the battery was empty and the petrol engine was kicking in. So I explored the possibilities, made an Excel sheet with specs and compared them against my needs. Then I rented a BEV for 10 days and drove 2500 km in it, to experience what it's like to make charging stops and if I'm fine with integrating them into my drives. Turned out it was fine for me.

EV are just shit boxes made to sound cool by Elon Musk. His vision was everyone has a garage at home to charge. Where most ppl lives in apartment where parking itself is already an issue. Let's be real, Japanese car manufacturers can keep doing what they want, which is to manufacture reliable and cost effective cars. EV's momentum will just last until the government subsidy ends. In my country the road tax for no subsidies EV are at least 4 to 6 times than regular car and is at least x2 more expensive than regular sedan.
*ALL* of legacy auto in the United States, Japan and Europe are finished as they ignored the inevitable EV revolution in the 2000s. Unlike the Chinese government and the Chinese auto industry. And you wonder why China is the world’s largest manufacturer of cars, and apart from Tesla, produce the world’s most advanced EVs. The morons in the West and Japan only have themselves to blame for the diabolical and terminal situation they collectively face. They all denied reality and chose not to lay the groundwork for the 2020s EV revolution. There is no stopping the Chinese EV juggernaut whatsoever. Volkswagen and Toyota can make all the PHEVs they want. It changes nothing as pure EVs are the only future.
It is the future in long term. By 2030, most (90%) of the vehicle sales will be Electric, Without any government subsidy or mandate. This is simply because EV will be cheeper than similar ICE cars (although operational cost of EV is already far less than fuel cost, but by 2030 even the upfront cost will be less than ICE) BTW, In China cost of EV is hardly 10% expensive than similar ICE cars. Of course cost of EV in rest of the world is much heigher, this is because of high tarrifs or poor local supply chain. EV will hut price parity in China very soon (2 years max). Hitting price parity in USA will require few more years, although it will happen before 2030. 2nd, There will be no range anxity. Because even today there are cars available mainly in China that can charge upto 80% within 10mins (Li Mega for example) By 2030, this ultra fast charging will be Mainstream around the world and the charging speed will even improve further by then. And 10min charging time is good enough. Because after driving 300kms you will anyways stop for 10min to pee and refreshment. And till to get back from Toilet your car gets additional 300km range. Drive next 300km and then repeat the cycle. 💥 This is the reason EV is the future even without any government incentive or mandate. Yes in short term government incentive is helping them, but they will be compatative on their own By 2030.
Everyone of those people who live in those small cramped apartments in cities use an EV to get to work or get around town everyday anyways. They're just built by Nippon Sharyo run on steel wheels and don't need batteries at all. Japan is an EV nation, Just one that is public transportation based and honestly that's better than relying on driving to get anywhere.
Konichi, your 2 cents are wrong. Toyota has announced to commercerize SSB(solid state battery) in 2027. The advantages of SSB: (1) does not catch fire (2) 15 min charge time (3) higher driving range (4) operate at lower temperature (4) longer life (5) smaller and lighter. Toyota's major competitors are 2 US companies QuantumScape(VW is sponsor) and Solid Power(Ford and BMW are sponsors). Once SSB are commercerized, EV sale will surge. All global car manufacturers are expected to stop making gasoline cars before 2035.
I believe it when I see it. Toyota has consistently pushed back their target date for SSBs and are now saying that they will first only release them in their most luxurious vehicles as they will be far more complex and expensive to produce. We will likely see SSB being the preferred technology in the future, but definitely not in any mass produced vehicles by 2027
You do know they already announced that a decade ago. And all those you are describing are already available on chinese tech. They even have 800volts charging infrastructure already.

Sure, the government subsidized roads for the first gas cars, but people were fighting tooth and nail to buy them! Same with basically any household goods today, including smartphones, dishwashers, electric bikes etc etc. But with EVs, most people are not excited at all, unless you dangle a massive carrot in front of it

Isn’t toyota using the BYD EV hybrid platform? Also china owns the entire supply china for batteries, so no matter who is making the battery it will still be Chinese haha. Japan is yesterday’s news … see nokia haha
Frankly i hope they do, i live in Singapore where car owners usually buy a new car every 10 years because we have a cap on how many cars can be on the road at all times so we need to bid for a certificate to entitle us to own and drive one and my family has always bought and driven a Japanese car ever since i can remember, Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and now a Mazda, they've always been super reliable, comfortable and affordable relative to other cars. Japanese car brands deserve to be the most successful in the world, and I hope they can defend their spot in general and also challenge the soulless wannabe ev brands from China that are flooding the market.

Victor, you are missing the point. Japanese cars only truly matter to Japanese car enthusiasts and the Japanese people. Out of the world population of 7.8 billion the Japanese car fanbase is truly minuscule indeed. Most people around the world will simply opt for whatever is most economically efficient and beneficial, so this leads to EVs being the logical and rational choice. By 2030, BYD of China will be the world’s largest manufacturer of cars and will easily surpass Toyota of Japan during its inexorable commercial rise.
Check out Key bridge, Maryland, the US. Waterproof cars save lives, and EVs can be easily waterproofed. Some BYD models are waterproof. You want EVs, even EVs made in China, unless you and your children want to die. After all, the American military cannot resist the benefits of electric vehicles. Otherwise, the US soldiers will have to drive internal combustion vehicles to fight the Chinese driving EVs. The power is one reason, the small heat signature is two, easy waterproof is three, the small noise is four, and the small cost is five. The list goes on and on. Two things must be considered regarding a war between the US and China since they have already changed warfare: drones and electric vehicles. In these two areas, the US and China are close, and maybe China is slightly ahead of the US. For example, an electric tank is practically infrared stealth compared with an internal combustion tank. After all, the tank's engine is a huge heat source and a target. I am quite sure that the Chinese military will drive electric vehicles, if not already. Now, BYD makes cars in Mexico. The Mexican police will soon drive electric cars to chase criminals' multimillion-dollar sports cars. As a result, the drug dealers must also drive electric cars. So, military, police, and criminals are driving EVs, men must follow, and only left the old pussies want to drive an internal combustion vehicle.

This is further fuelled by the fact that it is incredibly hard to fire people in Japan. However, companies are waking up and are reshuffling their sometimes incompetent leadership. Also, worth noting is that companies like Toyota might be lagging behind in some sectors, but they are still the world's most successful car company in history.
The ‘I Told You So’ Moment: Toyota’s Predictions About EVs Come True! Electric Vehicle or Hybrids? 😜 ua-cam.com/video/qFQ0brC19Ro/v-deo.html
Let’s not forget that it was not Tesla, but TOYOTA who pioneered the hybrid initially. It was Toyota who demonstrated that hybrids could actually work, and it was Toyota who actually made the hybrid sell well. Tesla may have made the first EV that caught the public eye, but they did not make it truly popular in the market. Otherwise, Tesla would have been one of the most popular cars in America, but they’re not even close. It was also Toyota who pioneered hydrogen fuel cell technology. Toyota is doing all of these things and is still being innovative in the market, but they’re also not being stupid either. They didn’t survive all this time by just hopping on the trends of their competitors. Toyota knows better. They didn’t hop on the EV bandwagon because they knew it wasn’t going to be a great seller in the market, and they were right. The world isn’t ready for EVs yet, and EVs sure as hell aren’t ready for the world yet either. They will be in time, but that time is not now. As a side note, we should be putting more investment and effort into figuring out efuels so we can get the existing billions of cars on the road to a carbon neutral state (or at least close to it)
I think one of the reason japanese ev lagging behind because of japanese old elites refused to step down and passed to newer generation. Akio toyoda is very good example for that
Exactly. Even my Japanese friend say the same. EVs are amazing generational leap from ICE but the uncles in power just refuse to change.
Who wants to catch up with a falling market - certainly not the sensible Japanese...

@@chrissmith2114 my local scrapyard is overflowing with SCRAPPED ICE CARS AHD TRUCKS 😂🤣
I have to correct you here, Japan not building EV has nothing to do with them being early adopter of hybrid, if it is just due to entenchment, why would they invest more on hydrogen which is even further away from their technology base?
the real reason why Japan does not invest in EV is 3 reason:
1stly, Japan cannot make money out of EV because the bulk of EV cost is in batteries and Japan just doesn't have the material to make them in japan, they have to be imported at great cost. Tesla literally FLIES it battery material from China to US, because the material breakdown quickly if not processed into a battery, so they can't even ship it by boat! Japan just don't want to do that.
2ndly, EV requires less precision parts which mean alot of suppliers would be out of the job, you can't just turn mechanical engineers into chemical engineers to make batteries.
3rdly, EV use electricity and Japan does not have energy independence. it is far easier to import oil than it is to import electricity. to install charging station in rest station is not a difficult thing, Japan real reason for not doing so is because they really don't want to add to their electricity consumption after recovering from fukushima that has dented their nuclear power output.
in short, EV are not something Japan can be strong at, their decision is not a mistake but and understanding of their national weakness in which EV would neither bring profit nor job and would not really address their energy shortage problem. they would have to fix their energy grid way before they can consider EV.
Toyoda, the boss of Toyota, looked straight into the camera and declared he normally lied. Normally? Ev sales in China are up some 40% this year. Your mother is ashamed of your lies.
Such a shame. Not even surprised they falsified satey ratings and other documents on their cars. Pure of scandal

soon it will be ONLY ICE cars in Japan only.
TOTAL BAN on EV .
Japan is a joke now.
What is that reason?
@@misosoppa3279tbe reason is that breaking into Markets that have basically been dominated is a costly andnvery unreliable investment.
Challening Apple and samsung while competing,with Lenovo and Co for the priviledge of having to constantly try to onenup oneself? Nah. Thats the Reason China Pushed for EV. The ICE Market is impenetrable. So they basically invested in creating a whole new market and sit on it.
Jury is out about if it will stick. Remember that EV Sales currently are driven by government Mandate, not success in convincing Customers. The whole issue about having to also invest into a supporting infrastructure is another reason the EV revolution is not rolling smoothly.
Here is why Japan won't catch up to China in EV:
1) The ship has sailed. The tech gap between China and Japan in EV is very wide. It is very hard to catch up to incumbent tech leader without disruptive tech.
2) One of the easiest way to catch up is of course by having price war. That what the Japanese did to rise against north american and european competitors in the 70s and 80s. But they can't be seriously trying to compete with China on price right?
3) So how did China manufacture EV so cheap? Bleeding edge manufacturing tech with industrial AI, integrated supply chain, best logistic in the world. This is crossing many industries and gov sectors. China is the best at this game, I don't see anyone right now can catch up on this.
4) While catching up is not entirely impossible, this last reason is the nail in the coffin for Japan: People. Japan's ageing population and rigid culture prevented it from leading all new tech breakthroughs. Japan has no leading internet company, Japan has no leading com tech manufacturer that produces next gen comm equipment, Japan has no leading AI company, etc. Without people hungry for success, the gov will make conservative decision, the company will just keep employing the old, and the young will be delinquent or disillusioned.
In conclusion, don't bet on Japanese car manufacturer in the future. Japan will be excelling on niche products or parts that goes on to cars and various tech. It can no longer create or push new tech. Its allies are all declining colonial power and it fails to compete in global south market when China is competing. It cannot sell its high tech product to China, but its allies has no manufacturing base to use its industrial products. Coupled with its shrinking national power, population and economy....Japan is in a very bad place.
the reason china can reach low prices is because alot of their material processing are byproduct of other industries... Japan tried many years ago to build a battery supply chain with Australia and they never manage to breakeven on that venture even after decade of investment.
@@lagrangewei Japan in general just fails in many overseas projects. They are not capable of building simple infrastructure overseas anymore let alone build an entire industry. Many of their infrastructure projects like railways and airports ends up with huge delays, cost overun, and recently those projects either got cancelled or taken over by China.
I don't agree with point 1, car consumers are one of the most conservative lot, Japanese car brand still command a lot of value. But they need to fix their gap fast, because once BYD, Cherry become household names, it's bye-bye Toyota, Honda. Toyota has been investing in interesting tech such as solid state batteries, so they can catch up quickly if they think it's the way to the future. But the current BEV market meltdown might make them complacent and loose the momentum.
@@turtlesoup8134 What the fuck are you talking about? I would rather be driving on a bridge a Japanese company built then on one a Chinese company built. Do some research and study about Chinese tofu dreg buildings. Chinese infrastructure is crumbling in alarming rates.
They wouldn't catch up in battery and EV in decades to come. Their electrical infrastructure is outdated and just enough to support for regular people. electrical cost is very high in Japan
the narrative that Chinese battery technology is best is pure cope propaganda.
If Chinese batteries like CATL and BYD are indeed better than Japanese Panasonic or any other countries's no. 1 let us say, like these useful idiots and muppets claim why do we not see these Chinese batteries in any other uses?
Boeing's latest passenger liner B787 Dreamliner uses advanced Lithium-Ion battery from the Japanese firm GS Yuasa. It is not European, Chinese Korean anything. Why did Boeing not adopt Chinese CATL or BYD batteries if they were so much better? Even if Boeing did not adopt Chinese batteries for national security reason, why was CATL and BYD's advanced battery not used on Chinese airliner C919??
Japanese navy's latest diesel electric submarine have the world's first and so far the only use of advanced Lithium-Ion battery to increase its submerge time by Matsushita Panasonic. Why doesn't the Chinese Navy's submarine also use advanced CATL and BYD batteries? Why do they keep using old-fashioned lead-acid battery??
Japanese high speed rail have Toshiba's SCiB Lithium-titanate battery that allows it to travel in emergency without the overhead electricity. It is the only high-speed rail in the world to have this feature. Why doesn't Chinese high speed railroad have this?
also u do realize LFP lithium-phosphate chemistry patents are not held by BYD or other Chinese firm but rather by CNRS of France right? BYD and CATL adopted it early due to signing of the exclusive licensing agreement. In fact each time BYD builds Blade, a portion of the money goes to CNRS for licensing. Now that the exclusive licensing agreeement and the patent exclusivity is coming to end, expect more LFP batteries from Japan, Europe and US

I saw a report on how Japan's charging infrastructure is killing EV sales. What little infrastructure they have is dwindling because some of the charging companies have gone bankrupt. Chargers aren't being maintained so an EV owner's range is severely limited.
BYD is cheap (€25,000 in Europe) and they managed to pass EuroNCAP, so they're probably safe enough. In Vienna, there are chargers built into lamp posts on the streets. I live in an apartment, no place to charge here. I've been waiting 2 years for a new Prius, hope to have it in September.

Of course there are few occasions EV is simply not adequate for now i.e. 4wd and towing hence I have the 4x4. But for vast majority of car transport, it's more than adequate and much more convenient.

That is a BS political argument. I don't see one person riding a horse to work! I don't know of anyone buying stereo amplifiers built with vacum tube technology.
By 2025, only EV allowed in Singapore
To say that even Hyundai from South Korea is pulling out EVs left and right.
Well just like everything else Japan is lacking behind both China and South Korea.
the narrative that Chinese or Korean battery technology is better than Japan is pure cope propaganda.
If Chinese batteries like CATL and BYD or Korean ones liek LG and Samsung are indeed better than Japanese Panasonic or any other countries's no. 1 let us say, like these useful idiots and muppets claim why do we not see these batteries in any other uses?
Boeing's latest passenger liner B787 Dreamliner uses advanced Lithium-Ion battery from the Japanese firm GS Yuasa. It is not European, Chinese Korean anything. Why did Boeing not adopt Chinese CATL or BYD batteries if they were so much better? Even if Boeing did not adopt Chinese batteries for national security reason, it doesn't explain why LG or Samsung was not used and it certainly do not explain why CATL and BYD's advanced battery not used on Chinese airliner C919??
Japanese navy's latest diesel electric submarine have the world's first and so far the only use of advanced Lithium-Ion battery to increase its submerge time by Matsushita Panasonic. Why doesn't the Chinese Navy's submarine also use advanced CATL and BYD batteries? Why Korean submarines don't have advanced Li-ion bateries? Why do they keep using old-fashioned lead-acid battery??
Japanese high speed rail have Toshiba's SCiB Lithium-titanate battery that allows it to travel in emergency without the overhead electricity. It is the only high-speed rail in the world to have this feature. Why doesn't Chinese or Korean high speed railroad have this?
also u do realize LFP lithium-phosphate chemistry patents are not held by BYD or other Chinese firm but rather by CNRS of France right? BYD and CATL adopted it early due to signing of the exclusive licensing agreement. In fact each time BYD builds Blade, a portion of the money goes to CNRS for licensing. Now that the exclusive licensing agreeement and the patent exclusivity is coming to end, expect more LFP batteries from Japan, Europe and US
@@miraphycs7377
Boeing's latest passenger liner B787 Dreamliner was burned down by the Lithium-Ion battery’s fire from GS Yuasa
@@miraphycs7377 and that's good. more competition means better products. heck, i love what China is doing with EVs but I still want that sweet Cadillac Lyriq.
Japan has never progressed to proper plug-in hybrids. BYD do this best for cheaper cars.
IMHo japan has one of the most advanced extremely environmentally friendly Electric Vehicle system ever too bad they don't run on rubber wheels and use overhead wires instead of batteries that most people don't think of them as EV's. Japan shouldn't worry about exporting cars, instead they should help the west create 300km/hour railways across the US.
Trolly Car ?
@@preeyakumari-i2q lmao trolley cars have to share the road. Nah these ev's get their own dedicated lanes that can't be used by rubber tired vehicles and always get priority signalling when they cross the road. Also they're 99.99% on time on schedule all the time
US problem isn't building train bruh. it is acquiring land...
@@lagrangewei Weird they have absolutely no problems acquiring land for 20 lane wide highways through inner cities but the moment its for 2 railway tracks suddenly the land becomes too expensive
The US is a car culture. Few would want to be packed like sardines into a tin can as they do in Japan. Also, public transit is very different for the Japanese than it is for Americans. Their buses and trains are safe, whereas, ours are packed with homeless, mentally ill, thugs, and other gangbangers. In L.A., people are being assaulted and killed while using public transit, or while waiting on train platforms, or bus stops. It's a huge issue.
The EV rush is over. This is the end of the story. Japan made the right decision
Yeah like ev sales up 50% globally. 😂
Nope, the ever increasing demands by US EPA will force them to offer at least a few EVs if they want to continue to sell cars in the US.
they were never in the race, as is ev manufacturer's are suffering huge losses facing competition, dwindling sales of their products..the japanese could of made the right move to wait and work on a more sustainable, less exploding, lighter and less toxic batteries.
its okay, empires rise and fall.
Come-on Toyota where's SOLID STATE BATTERY CARS!
EV is a nightmare, unfortunately
When EVs take 10 minutes to charge, they would be main stream.
I agree, and we are getting ever closer!
Meh, they'll be fine. Just because people are buying cheap Chinese EVs now does not mean every Chinese EV maker will be successful in the long run. Just take the example of Xiaomi and mobile phone sales. Xiaomi entered India (my country) and briefly became no. 1 in some quarters in the past, overtaking Samsung. They achieved that by purposely selling phones for very cheap. Not because they wanted to, but they wanted to kill the competitors. Asus smartphones, Sony smartphones, and other Chinese brands like Meizu -- all exited India after a few years. But Xiaomi were making losses for many years and knew that they couldn't go on like this.
So they began raising prices in India. Result? They're now in 4th place and sales are down significantly, and Samsung is back to the no. 1 spot. Even Apple is gaining marketshare in India despite higher prices. That's the thing about Chinese brands. Many buy them only because they're cheap. Not because the quality is amazing or the longterm reliability is excellent.
And that's where Japanese brands are different. The one thing Japanese brands are known for is RELIABILITY. There's no shortage of exploding EV footage out of China. There's no shortage of data show how badly EVs lose value in the second hand resale market in a short period of time. Toyota and Honda are not short-sighted. Eventually consumers will realize the downsides to current EV technology and the longterm quality of Chinese cars. Not to mention the fact China's primary source of electricity to power all their EVs is still COAL! Next imagine how China is going to recycle all those EV batteries.
The Japanese car brands are not going anywhere.
You have a very good point, and might be right, but cars are a different beast to phones. For ICE cars, successful companies have incrementally improved over decades and new competitors have no chance except for niche areas. Chinese companies have the upper hand in this strategy as they've been fully on board on EVs for the longest (except Tesla), so their tech should be better than most competitors. It could be that EVs don't follow the same rules as ICE cars and Japanese makers can jump in when they consider the tech to be ready, but I have a hunch they can't...
*ALL* of legacy auto in the United States, Japan and Europe are finished as they ignored the inevitable EV revolution in the 2000s. Unlike the Chinese government and the Chinese auto industry. And you wonder why China is the world’s largest manufacturer of cars, and apart from Tesla, produce the world’s most advanced EVs.
The morons in the West and Japan only have themselves to blame for the diabolical and terminal situation they collectively face. They all denied reality and chose not to lay the groundwork for the 2020s EV revolution. There is no stopping the Chinese EV juggernaut whatsoever. Volkswagen and Toyota can make all the PHEVs they want. It changes nothing as pure EVs are the only future.
They are losing one of the largest car markets: China
India has no oil , it has to import the stuff , sunshine is everywhere in India, you even have one of the biggest solar farms, but the Chinese make Solar panels like no tomorrow, and they are the world's biggest battery producers, cars and CPhones are two different things, India is bad at manufacturing things compared to the Chinese,on top of being corrupt and begging for BRIBES , just ask Elon who cancelled his meeting with Modi and went to China instead recently,India wanted a $500 MILLION BRIBE from Tesla for a factory.WTF🤔
China is moving away from Coal it's Wind and Solar industryand Battery Storage is like no other, Tesla just opened the Mega Pack factory to produce MegaPack LFP battery Storage for Grid applications , this is for Worldwide and Asia Sales, keep up with the News!.India wants BRIBES to open factories in India, but India is good at supporting Russia and DESPOT Putin in its UNJUSTIFIED War with Ukraine, CHEAP OIL being the REASON,
EV's are not the future, hybrids are. Until battery tech is green enough and can out perform gas cars in terms of longivity, EV's should start their reign, but otherwise hybrid or gas.
Purchasing a modern EV has turned out to be the WORST investment for lots of EV owners out there. Truth is, battery technology is NOT ready for EV's.
Just need to look at resale value so far hybrids are the future. At least Elon has rockets and robots to fall back on
I have a BYD.
How is it?
@@konichivalue I feel safer when I drive my BYD. At least better than Tesla. There are many EV brands in Hong Kong, but people mainly buy either Tesla or BYD. Every week Hong Kong has at least one car accident related to Tesla, and we think Tesla EV cars have brake problems.
People around the world still like and want Japanese cars, especially the so-called JDM. Therefore, the World of EVs still needs Japanese EVs to make EVs highest popular globally. Japanese automakers knows this point well. So they can choose to not produce EVs. They can choose to produce only fuel cars and mild-hybrid cars as before. People all over the world still buy Japanese cars as before.
Yes, Japanese cars are very popular. People will continue to buy Japanese ICE cars and hybrids...until they can't. Take the state of California for example (it's in the US if you're not American), by 2035, all new cars must be zero emission. California is very lucrative market for car makers since it is the state with the most registered autos in the US.
the biggest hurdle for Japanese car maker to catch up is software!
even if they manage to catch up in hardware, but software won't be easy!
Perhaps, they are the smart ones!
We are now seeing the craziness of the EV market coming through.
Who in their right mind would want to buy a 2nd hand EV, knowing it will be out of date within 3 years from new?
EV makers are bringing out these bland cars with up to date batteries every year, thus the older models of 2 or 3 years back are half as good, battery wise!
I wouldn't want to buy a 50kw car that becomes a 150kw within 2 or 3 years, so where is the 2nd hand market?
If there is one, then it's just the battery you are buying, because the car itself is worthless!
You buy a 4 year old EV, have 3 or 4 years left before it's a useless battery, unless you want to keep charging it every day to drove 50 miles!
Then you have the nasty expense of buying a new battery!
If an EV cost say £40k, the battery £20k (when needed) and I 'bought' a 4 year old 2nd hand EV, I'd expect the seller to be paying me £10k to take it of their hands, not me paying them!
Nonsense, why do people buy less efficient older second hand ICE cars that get worse miles per gallon than their modern counterparts? Modern ICE cars also come with anti-stall, electric handbrakes and other mod cons your 2012 Honda Civic doesn't have yet people are still buying the inferior older cars second hand, how can this be?
Second hand car market is driven by necessity, most people can't afford a new car and only have a couple of 1000 to spend. For this reason the 2nd hand EV market will be very busy for years to come. I swear every single argument people try to use against EV's applies to Gas cars even more so.
Buy Nokia because Apple will be out of date within 3 years.
Toyota is simply the best car. Hybrid is the future. Choice is the future. EV - is only 1 choice. Hybrid is at least 3 choices: LPG, GAS, Electric 3 in 1 technology.
3 different system to service
Bullshit. PHEVs are for morons as these weird Frankenstein cars are inherently compromised, conflicted and inefficient.
Rubbish. Toyota only matters to Toyota tragics and the Japanese people. Everyone else will transition to EVs by the 2030s.
Nokia aware 🤣
The Chinese will whip Toyotas A$$ , by 2030 China will have more than Toyotas market share, their mistake? They sold their TSLA shares about 8 years ago.😂LOL
great video
Unless Japan can come up with zero point energy devices or battery manufacturing then maybe they have a chance 😅
China has the upper hand because of their abundant nateral resources of battery making materials like lithium and cobalt. Car making countries like Japan doesnt want to held hostage by China because of battery supplies. Tbh no other countries wanted to be in that situation. The charging infrastructure is undesireable compared to the gas pump. It takes time to charge up an EV. Next thing is price. If everything about the EV cost more, there will be a slow adoption for sure. For Japan they are not worried at all and their focus is on other energy resources.Very often people do not look at the waste problem until it becomes a major problem. Battery waste cannot be ignored. Building an EV charging infrastructure and battery recycling should be done together. Otherwise countries will be relying on China to solve their battery waste problems in the future.
And yet, the Japanese plug-in hybrids use lithium batteries. So...
Give me a hybrid anyday, you can't drive when we have blackouts in the future.
Can’t pump gas with no electricity ! If you get solar and battery backup at your home don’t have to worry about it
I think the foreseeable future Hybrids will rule and Toyota is the leader by far in hybrids. Ev in America is cutting prices to sell especially Tesla. Toyota is safe.
I agree
@@konichivalueBYD is the leader by far in hybrids, so much so that Toyota has licensed its hybrid platform. Quite a few other Chinese automakers aren’t too far behind BYD in hybrid tech and all of them are way ahead of Toyota’s obsolete tech.
You are way behind like Toyota, toyota will use hybrid tech from Byd starting next year production. 😂 check it out they announced it already.
Panasonic from Japan makes batteries for Tesla’s high end models. These Japanese auto makers just don’t want to go full EV even though they have the suppliers to do so because their spare parts business will go down the drain.
Who says they have to?
Obviously an EV is the best option.. 30 minutes to refill... 150k usd spare bateries... less than 10years lifespan... take pollution from cities to 3rd world mines... and slave labor... just think about this, a 1950 cadillac eldorado can still drive (even earlier 1910 models are functiona).. can a EV Cadillac lyriq last that long?
Bullshit. There are hundreds of thousands of EVs around the world which have travelled 500,000km with their original battery packs and electric motors.
An Australian household with 2 petrol cars will spend a massive AUD $84,000 just on fuel and engine maintenance alone over 20 years. An EV powered by home solar has zero running costs. Nothing. You cannot beat a zero dollar cost. Ever.
You need an education into BEVs 🤔.....🤣
All those draw backs will not exist in five years !
10year life span is not true. The older tesla can last 10+ year easily
I don't think EV infrastructure would work. This is the REALITY.
1. Takes a lot of time to charge.
2. The electricity from the EV still comes from Fossil Fuel (hidden from the masses).
3. The batteries are still an environmental hazzard (hidden from the masses). The batteries themselves are sometimes as expensive as the motor and it lasts shorter.
4. The batteries does not store enough power so it can travel equal to or farther than a petrol/diesel vehicle.
5. If there is a battery leak, the fire is UNSTOPABBLE.... way more dangerous than fuel.
6. Related to number 4, the batteries doesn't hold electricity as efficient as petrol/diesel. It degrades faster.. it also adds another layer of electricity transition from electric station to battery. Therefore, resulting to more energy wasted. Very unpredictable range.. you don't know when you are going to run out of power (not confidence inspiring).
7. The electric engines are still not that efficient. The efficiency is still the same as far as electric motor 100 years ago. There's no really ground breaking technology introduced here. It's still the same electric motor principle being applied.
8. Electric vehicles are much expensive (not sure why, maybe it's aritificially made expensive because it seems "new".. even though the manufacturing is way way simpler than combustion engine.).
To prove all of this let me ask. Is there an electric vehicle that is as efficient as a petrol/diesel engine and loads fuel as fast. The answer is NO. If there is, it has compromises.
Eletric vehicles are best on the "personal" transportation category. Like e-scooters, electric skateboards, monowheels, E-bikes... etc..
It simply can't compete with the Big Boys.
Toyota needs to be careful even on PHEVs now - BYD's latest 5th generation DMi PHEV is very strong.
They dont need to be careful, the will now use byd hybrid tech soon.
It's too late for japanese automakers. Same for the other legacy european car makers. Those in the know, knows
bz4x is called toyota verification code in china,which uses the out date battery tech of the byd 🤣
Yeah, and a lot if Toyota loyalists are waiting for them to catch up, but BYD releases updated car models every week, so I find it highly unlikely
Come on Japan build a car engine that runs on H2O. EV are as dangerous if not the worst for the environment. The world need cars that runs on water, Toyota you're almost there don't give up.

If you know the Japanese people as a country you will know how competitive Japan is with China. Through cruel and bloody wars. When Japan started sensing Chinas dominance in EVs they tried something different to save face. Now they are behind like everyone else except Tesla in the tech.
In real world only hybrids make sense.
While a Prius for instance is impressive and useful, I don't think we can say this in a black and white fashion.
My take:
BEVs can be used where they meet the requirements of the drivers, which can be vastly different. When they don't fit, hybrids are useful.
Little personal story: A hybrid helped me making my mind up, now I drive a BEV. Why is that? I drove a plug-in hybrid for 3 weeks as a company car. I noticed the extreme difference in driving pleasure and softness when the battery was empty and the petrol engine was kicking in. So I explored the possibilities, made an Excel sheet with specs and compared them against my needs. Then I rented a BEV for 10 days and drove 2500 km in it, to experience what it's like to make charging stops and if I'm fine with integrating them into my drives. Turned out it was fine for me.
I'm sorry where are all these cheap ev's in europe? The average Chinese EV is twice as expensive as it is in China...
Are they cheaper than the Euro brands?
@@theotheleo6830 well a good second hand german car used to be £2500 in the UK around 5 years ago. Now that same car is £5000.

You can get 2 bmw 2012 5 series for the price of a second hand honda jazz (hybrid) 2021. european market's aren't free market money driven but rather high tax, market minipulation and control/corruption driven. truth is, i haven't seen a chinese ev in the uk yet. i'm sure they're out there. who in their right mind would buy a honda jazz over a bmw 5-series with £10k spare? you would if you lived here. ulez wouldn't allow you to drive into london without paying £12/day. I don't mean central london otherwise that would be a seperate additional payment. London is its own country. As soon as you leave london, you enter the real UK. Its deprived..to put it lightly. Fuel is also very expensive in europe. Most of it is tax of course. its just not a market to judge the performance of your product by.
I'll be buying a Toyota.
Any country can catch up if they put the money whete the mouth is. They had wasted too much money in Hydrogen snd restructuring the company.
The video fails to recognize that TOYOTA'S EV CARS RUN ON WATER WITH ZERO BY PRODUCTS. JAPAN HAS REJECTED BATTERY EVS, so they have developed cars that run on WATER. H20. No batteries that will electrocute CONSUMERS or REPAIRMEN. All components in the vehicles are RECYCLED.
What are you talking about? Cars can't run on water. There must be an energy source to power them from.

EV are just shit boxes made to sound cool by Elon Musk. His vision was everyone has a garage at home to charge. Where most ppl lives in apartment where parking itself is already an issue.
Let's be real, Japanese car manufacturers can keep doing what they want, which is to manufacture reliable and cost effective cars.
EV's momentum will just last until the government subsidy ends.
In my country the road tax for no subsidies EV are at least 4 to 6 times than regular car and is at least x2 more expensive than regular sedan.
Where is this? New zealand? I heard they just passed road tax which is higher than going for fuel

It is the future in long term.
By 2030, most (90%) of the vehicle sales will be Electric,
Without any government subsidy or mandate.
This is simply because EV will be cheeper than similar ICE cars (although operational cost of EV is already far less than fuel cost, but by 2030 even the upfront cost will be less than ICE)
BTW,
In China cost of EV is hardly 10% expensive than similar ICE cars.
Of course cost of EV in rest of the world is much heigher, this is because of high tarrifs or poor local supply chain.
EV will hut price parity in China very soon (2 years max).
Hitting price parity in USA will require few more years, although it will happen before 2030.
2nd,
There will be no range anxity.
Because even today there are cars available mainly in China that can charge upto 80% within 10mins (Li Mega for example)
By 2030, this ultra fast charging will be Mainstream around the world and the charging speed will even improve further by then.
And 10min charging time is good enough.
Because after driving 300kms you will anyways stop for 10min to pee and refreshment.
And till to get back from Toilet your car gets additional 300km range.
Drive next 300km and then repeat the cycle.
💥
This is the reason EV is the future even without any government incentive or mandate.
Yes in short term government incentive is helping them, but they will be compatative on their own By 2030.
Everyone of those people who live in those small cramped apartments in cities use an EV to get to work or get around town everyday anyways. They're just built by Nippon Sharyo run on steel wheels and don't need batteries at all. Japan is an EV nation, Just one that is public transportation based and honestly that's better than relying on driving to get anywhere.
How Are EVs Shitboxes? Have you driven one? Well then I Guess my Mountain Bike is a rusty old bike I stole from a garbage dump. 😂😂😂
Konichi, your 2 cents are wrong. Toyota has announced to commercerize SSB(solid state battery) in 2027. The advantages of SSB: (1) does not catch fire (2) 15 min charge time (3) higher driving range (4) operate at lower temperature (4) longer life (5) smaller and lighter. Toyota's major competitors are 2 US companies QuantumScape(VW is sponsor) and Solid Power(Ford and BMW are sponsors). Once SSB are commercerized, EV sale will surge. All global car manufacturers are expected to stop making gasoline cars before 2035.
I believe it when I see it. Toyota has consistently pushed back their target date for SSBs and are now saying that they will first only release them in their most luxurious vehicles as they will be far more complex and expensive to produce. We will likely see SSB being the preferred technology in the future, but definitely not in any mass produced vehicles by 2027
They claimed in 2014 that toyota ssb will be on the market 2016, then 2020. Now 2027 😂 fail
You do know they already announced that a decade ago. And all those you are describing are already available on chinese tech. They even have 800volts charging infrastructure already.
Toyota has the best electric consumer cars whats this guy on about?
I agree to this video

I am on your side, but I'm still wondering if we have had any successful product with this muchhelp to make people purchase them? Sure, the government subsidized roads for the first gas cars, but people were fighting tooth and nail to buy them! Same with basically any household goods today, including smartphones, dishwashers, electric bikes etc etc. But with EVs, most people are not excited at all, unless you dangle a massive carrot in front of it
That''s because Japanese people know cars are not part of their future, Public transportation is.
Maybe you tell the Chinese that.
@@AuralioCabal-nl8gi The chinese know that Americans loathe public transport so they have no choice but EV's. Japan meanwhile knows that driving isn't important, what's important is getting to work on time and they have trains for that, They know that more and more japanese people will move to cities where they won't bother with driving to work and with the population dropping car sales will drop.
I think Japan is on to something, that's why is not bother catching up
Did u just made this video to hype up byd? 😂. Do u not know whats going on in china with BYD and how their government is doing a media black out on anything negative whilst only trying to paint a positive image to the rest of the world?
I don’t think so, seens he has make some videos where japan is on top of China on market or presence.
この人中国からいくら貰ったんだ
wrg
Isn’t toyota using the BYD EV hybrid platform? Also china owns the entire supply china for batteries, so no matter who is making the battery it will still be Chinese haha. Japan is yesterday’s news … see nokia haha
Frankly i hope they do, i live in Singapore where car owners usually buy a new car every 10 years because we have a cap on how many cars can be on the road at all times so we need to bid for a certificate to entitle us to own and drive one and my family has always bought and driven a Japanese car ever since i can remember, Toyota, Nissan, Honda, and now a Mazda, they've always been super reliable, comfortable and affordable relative to other cars. Japanese car brands deserve to be the most successful in the world, and I hope they can defend their spot in general and also challenge the soulless wannabe ev brands from China that are flooding the market.
Why do you need a car for a little mosquito nation like Singapore? Are you trying to show off? 🤔🤔🤔
Singapore has no room for humans let alone park a car. 😂😂😂😂
Uh no. My affluent Singaporean friend are getting EVs. That will very quickly be imitated by the masses...

Victor, you are missing the point. Japanese cars only truly matter to Japanese car enthusiasts and the Japanese people. Out of the world population of 7.8 billion the Japanese car fanbase is truly minuscule indeed.
Most people around the world will simply opt for whatever is most economically efficient and beneficial, so this leads to EVs being the logical and rational choice.
By 2030, BYD of China will be the world’s largest manufacturer of cars and will easily surpass Toyota of Japan during its inexorable commercial rise.
everything his saying is lies
full of crap
Ok, and your Point?
Toyota has around $200 billion debt relating to ICE and HEV production. Most of the Japanese industry will be competed away.
Check out Key bridge, Maryland, the US. Waterproof cars save lives, and EVs can be easily waterproofed. Some BYD models are waterproof.
You want EVs, even EVs made in China, unless you and your children want to die.
After all, the American military cannot resist the benefits of electric vehicles. Otherwise, the US soldiers will have to drive internal combustion vehicles to fight the Chinese driving EVs. The power is one reason, the small heat signature is two, easy waterproof is three, the small noise is four, and the small cost is five. The list goes on and on.
Two things must be considered regarding a war between the US and China since they have already changed warfare: drones and electric vehicles. In these two areas, the US and China are close, and maybe China is slightly ahead of the US.
For example, an electric tank is practically infrared stealth compared with an internal combustion tank. After all, the tank's engine is a huge heat source and a target. I am quite sure that the Chinese military will drive electric vehicles, if not already.
Now, BYD makes cars in Mexico. The Mexican police will soon drive electric cars to chase criminals' multimillion-dollar sports cars. As a result, the drug dealers must also drive electric cars. So, military, police, and criminals are driving EVs, men must follow, and only left the old pussies want to drive an internal combustion vehicle.
