I never thought I would say this, but this thing has been a pleasure to work on. Thanks #Toyota

"Toyota had to shut down 28 assembly lines at 14 auto plants in Japan due to computer issues." The one-day disruption caused an output loss of around 13,000 cars. Insufficient disk space, and "servers were running on the same system as its backup, causing the same issue there, so the company couldn't make a switch."

@thejapantimes "sold socially conscious debt"

I do not think those words mean what you and #Toyota think they mean...

#SociallyConsciousDebt: #Ingsoc approves, #Orwell weeps.

@CelloMomOnCars “between hope and hype”describes most of Toyota’s failed EV strategy. It’s astonishing to me that they completely blew the lead they had from Prius and still seem to fail to realize the potential of EVs #evs #toyota

#Toyota 'Durch diesen "technologischen Durchbruch" werde es möglich, dass ein mit einer Festkörperbatterie betriebenes Elektroauto über eine Reichweite von 1.200 km verfüge und binnen 10 Minuten oder darunter aufgeladen werden könne.'

How amazing is this? A 745 travel mile distance with a 10-minute battery recharge. Come on, #Toyota, you can do it.

Ok #toyota in these days of spam-everything from all directions, it is SO NOT COOL to be constantly calling my cell from some random phone number to leave me apparently official voice mails that my car is due for service. Do you not get why that's not a good idea? #BadBusiness #StupidIdeas #stopCallingMe

How Your New #Car Tracks You

Vehicles from #Toyota, #Honda, #Ford, and more can collect huge volumes of data. Here’s what the companies can access and sell.

932 miles?? With 10 minutes of charging?? I knew #battery technology was advancing quickly but it's amazing that #Toyota would be able to do it by 2027.

I wish they published more information about the construction and materials of the battery as it seems really cool! It's exciting to see the direction #ElectricVehicles are going and watch them become better than gas in almost every way (though unfortunately still having many unethically sourced materials, and expense).

"Toyota announces new electric car battery which could cut charging time to under 10 minutes"

Has #formula1 CEO Stefano Domenicali reached to #Toyota to see if they’d want to join F1 these days as perhaps an engine supplier? At first it sounds crazy but it makes a bit of sense considering Toyota wants to boost their #gazooracing division, and doesn’t believe that full EVs are the immediate future. A sustainably fueled ICE paired with a stronger EV system seems aligned with Toyotas current views on vehicle propulsion. Imagine seeing a McLaren-Toyota team on the grid
