Consumers are increasingly weighing up auto manufacturers’ commitments to sustainability and ethical standards when making their vehicle purchase decisions. Large institutional investors have started to ban investments in companies in the industry that don’t meet stringent ESG standards. And new talent, which is critical to attract to enable the transformation, increasingly factor sustainability, climate action, DEI, purpose and the flexibility of work environment into their long-term employment decisions. To stay relevant for customers, employees and investors, it is not sufficient anymore for players in the automotive industry to focus on product innovations, revenues and profits. A radical rethink is required, from the assembly line to the dealership, from automaker to automotive technician.

He even suggested that cheaper EVs might not be part of the company’s plans, with self-driving technology being more impactful on the cost per mile. As part of the review, Toyota is considering a successor to its e-TNGA platform, which was unveiled in 2019 and underpins its first EV, the bZ4X crossover. The automaker designed e-TNGA so that EVs could be produced on the same assembly line with petrol cars and hybrids. Based on the assumption it would need to sell about 3.5 million EVs a year, or roughly one-third of its current global volume, by 2030 to stay competitive, this made sense. The chips shortage continues to pressure industry and presents a significant to existential challenge for automotive suppliers, highlighting the need for a dedicated semiconductor strategy and tangible action from policymakers.

“Right now our biggest hurdle is the electrical substation that supplies SIC. It does not have enough capacity to support the addition of EV fast chargers,” Shafriman said. “But we are speaking with our partners and hope to see EV charging at the track soon, perhaps by this year,” he added. As for the rear, it is very upright and sports a full-width light bar that continues vertically down the vehicle’s sides and integrates with the taillights that bear a squarish light signature. Side blades and a boot lid spoiler help with the airflow as well, and the car gets a two-tone colour palette to make it pop visually.
