Toyota announces EV output cut by 2026
Despite the stand of the brand, it still offers a few EVs for consumers to buy, and in fact, it has gone as far as even making predictions for its future sales.

Nikkei Asia first reported this, and in that report, Toyota cited the global EV sales slowdown as the reason for the decision to cut the 2026 prediction by a third.
