The Toyota heir is head of the Japanese government automotive committee and he is very much against BEVs. They tend to follow his lead which has become disastrous for their Chinese endeavors. But Nissan and Honda had a backup plan and has executed it. Honda teamed up with GM and Nissan cranked out an EV crossover.

Nissan is another surprising one. They had a huge lead with the Leaf and then did nothing with it. Hopefully all the Japanese mfrs can get on board sooner rather than later.
