Toyota wants to show nobody wants EVs by making EVs nobody wants.

I'd take a hard look at an electric Corolla if it's not much more expensive than the gas version

  • Me too. Not for me, but for my kids. The idea of a dead nuts reliable Toyota EV is appealing. They're not going to blow your socks off with performance or tech, but combining Toyota manufacturing prowess with the inherent superior reliability of EVs could make for one hell of a long term ownership experience.

Am I the only one who thinks those look damned cool? If they provided some kind of stupid engine option to definitively hoon the thing, I’d be all over it.

  • To be clear, exterior design only. The interior looks stupid. The seats look deadly to me at 50 with back problems.

    • It's a concept car. Concept cars are always full of wacky nonsense no one wants. The production model will just be a regular car.
