    I hate Toyota.

    I have a Prius. Absolutely fantastic little transportation appliance. 950km on a full tank. No maintenance so far in 6.5 years except for brakes and oil change (the front wiper is proprietary and all mangled).

    They release full EVs in every other market BUT North America. Why??? Why can’t we have the nice things? The one EV they have here has horrible range and is just a re-logo’d Subaru.

    They build very reliable and safe vehicles yet if you’re Canadian or American and want an ev from them, haha fuck you. May I interest u in a mirai?

      As with most things, the answer is lobbying groups and nearly unlimited slush money for bribes.
