Saw this on TCL so figured I'd post it here for comments. Will be interesting to see how well this does. I think Toyota has a lot of brand cache in the US so this could sell like gangbusters for those people who have been "EV hesitant" until now, but once the super reliable Toyota is in the game they might be willing to trust them.

Looks generic IMHO, but I don't really follow Toyota much myself so maybe this fits in with their designs.
I'll pass
That's a wild fender design/paint scheme!
Interior is a bit of an eyesore.
that piece around the instrument cluster is a no go.
Wasn't Toyota's CEO just saying that EVs were/are overhyped?

2007: Steve Jobs says that native apps are overhyped and we should all just write shit for HTML5.
2008+: App store debuts, Apple completely nerfs Safari and ignores the web.

Looks like Toyota's biggest investors are pushing them to develop EVs. I don't think the company cares other than that
It has... buttons - people want/need buttons whatever the motive force behind the drivetrain.
