Pretty much everyone but Tesla does clunky ev's. Let's take a wagon, hb, .. and make it electric. First 2 Teslas - sleek, 3 outta 5 - sleek. And the truck...

This is like a communist five year plan, somehow great things will happen in the future, but right now they are on a sketch pad. We will and we are happen to be very different things. The atherosclerotics populating their board rooms will first need to die off before any real progress can occur.

Look at the 2021 RAV4 Prime, this will be going on for a long time, half and half is the way the masses want it, as most become of retirement age before they can afford a new car.

Toyota firmly believes in using their limited battery supply to produce a much larger volume of hybrid and plug-in hybrid cars. They are only interested in making BEVs for markets where they are mandated. I have a 2012 RAV4 EV and it's the first Toyota I've ever owned. It will probably be the last too.

Yes it is!

That reason, which Toyota has offered more than once, does make some sense for PHEVs with reasonably-sized batteries. (Although one could ask why they haven't worked to obtain - or build - more batteries).

However, historical note: Toyota originally used that line when talking about HEVs versus BEVs. But the energy-dense batteries used in BEVs are quite different than the power-dense batteries used in HEVs (a point that Toyota understands, because they have also used it as an excuse for not building BEVs - they had the latter batteries, but not the former), so they can't just shift the battery allocation between the two types of cars.
