You give them credit for taking a risk on hydrogen but not the manufacturers who took a risk on EVs? Interesting.

No, because the manufacturers who took a risk on EVs, at large, did it due to FOMO and investor pressure after seeing Tesla balloon in the stock market.

		Now that's a hot take, do you own Toyota stock or something? ;-) A more sober analysis would suggest that EVs have been surging in popularity while every rational analysis of hydrogen overwhelmingly suggests it is infeasible. Toyota did make a BEV, too. FOMO?

Toyota and Lexus are still the most reliable cars on the planet.

		We reached the point a long time ago where there weren't really any 'shit' cars any more, just variations on okay. Toyota does have a good record, though it tends to mean that buying them brand new is the best choice, they hold their value too well on the used market compared to their actual reliability advantage.
