I'm talking about the preparations for doing so, you have to put in the foundations to get the innovations later on.
For example, the ball pen, microwaves and grooves on roads to help braking.
All three of these came from the space program.
I'd Toyota hadn't been so pig headed in their attempts at using hydrogen (a terrible choice from day one) then who knows where battery technology would be now.
China spent 250 billion usd over 15 years on their EV industry. Without huge government subsidies and investments the private companies don't stand a chance.
Japan has spent well over $100 billion in government subsidies for hydrogen vehicles but here we are with China producing more Hydrogen vehicles at lower prices
I just wish they can come up with battery standards together that are cross compatible with each other so you don't have to rely on just one manufacturer for it for your car when it needs to get replaced.
Hydrogen cars have been around for years, maybe even decades. They’re not the answer. The liquefied hydrogen tank takes up too much space in the boot, and a rear-end crash would be a death sentence.
The EV battery is expensive, unreliable, cannot be extinguished once runaway starts, and there is no way to recycle them which makes economic sense, the pollutes, not when using but when mining and making, every part of it is very toxic or hazardous, and the battery tech has reached its end, we are using the same tech as 30 years ago and can't be improved. The list goes on.
Ah an expert I see, As someone who worked with cars and making car batteries for almost a decade, a FULL EV world will not work, and we don't have a GOOD solution for Hydrogen cars in Japan yet, they are alright but not good enough.
Talk about making a move twenty years late....
Better late than never I guess.
Battery is a technology that hasn't developed enough in the last decades, so I think it’s due time.

Nissan said batteries are shit, so they could push their hybrids.

by the time they've finished their meetings, the world will have figured out nuclear fusion
9 companies? I think that’s the issue here. Do you really need that many
It seems like to me, Japanese companies have a much stronger desire for JV’s than western companies
How many materials and equipment suppliers do you think one Chinese battery manufacturer has coordinate with to produce batteries?
Supply chain management and companies' collaboration are different. Apple doesn't “team up” with hundreds of companies to produce a phone
Just let us buy BYD already.
BYD is available in Japan wdym?
Wrong sub, you are hurting every K-car enjoyers feeling !
I like the Sakura though. Would love to own one
🤮
Cool, support someone with an intense Ketamine habit instead? Alright....
Sure. Those two are the only options… /s Weakest argument hahaha
why do old timer companies get suicidal?
I really hope Japan could come up with good hydrogen or other kind of fuel cell car because full EV is not a solution to our problem.

I'm saying we need diversity and need multiple solutions to tackle our problem, but apparently, everybody disagrees
Where’s the market? We don’t want any in the US.
