He kept Toyota making hybrids, since 1997, and did not invest tens of billions in EVs no one bought like most automakers did when CEOs all wanted to be like Tesla. He fought his board and investors because he did not believe the US market was ready to adopt EVs in the large numbers Toyota is based on, and he was 100% right. Toyota has pushed off on EVs until they can source solid state batteries.
Again, because Toyota stock is based on actual performance, not pure bullshit like TSLA. They don't get free government money.
The context of that picture is a NASCAR event, where you better be pro Trump, especially as an asian.
The event was at Fuji Speedway which is in Japen. I think he would of made it out alive without all the MAGA stuff, especially as an Asian lol.
Toyota spent money on hydrogen instead and that went nowhere. And now EVs make up about 25% of all cars sold today and number continues to go up every year. Toyota isn't even in the top 20 EV brands as far as sales, If anything he's losing them money.
Continuing to sell the Prius and other successful hybrids doesn't make him a genius lol. He definitely gets credit for the LFA and ever cool enthusiasts car Toyota has made over like the last 15 years though.
