Toyota's chairman, Akio Toyoda, predicts that electric vehicles (EVs) will only make up 30% of the future auto industry. This prediction challenges the Albanese Government's green energy modeling. Additionally, Toyota Industries Corp. and Toyota Motor have been embroiled in scandals involving fraudulent performance tests on diesel engines, leading to apologies from the company's president and chairman. The scandals have led to a severe decline in EV sales in Australia, as reported by Drive senior journalist Paul Gover. The testing scandals have overshadowed Toyota's top sales ranking, with the company facing scrutiny from transport ministry officials and the wider public.
