Toyota is right but they should've made cars like the Corolla a hybrid by standard way earlier. Like 2015 or whatever, the tech was pretty mature then. For 2023 it became a hybrid as standard
You know what drives me fucking crazy is that the fossil fuel industry still couldve had us hooked on burning oil and shit but still have EVs in the like 1930s. It would've been way more efficient to just plug your car in and drive around but still burn oil for electricity.
But noooo, it's not about efficiency, it's about profit and about selling more oil in inefficient ICEs and dumping the cost somewhere profit doesn't notice like our shared atmosphere.

To be fair, electric cars were janky shitboxes until modern lithium batteries and solid-state controllers came along
