I strongly disagree. Companies are having a very very hard time getting into the electric vehicle business. Toyota actively spent money trying to slow down the advancements in EVs to give themselves time to catch up (https://electrek.co/2021/09/22/toyota-facing-boycotts-over-f...). If only centers, parts, repairs, and manufacturing capacity matter, then Toyota should have nothing to fear. They have all of that in spades compared to rivian or Tesla.

Toyota bet heavily on hydrogen. They are still convinced that is the future.

And after my experience with BEV, I am more likely to believe that hydrogen or synthetic fuels are future, than a battery joke.

Give BEV 10 or 20 years and it will be as good as ICE.

Battery tech is advancing rapidly. BEVs will be 95% of automotive sales by the end of the decade.

Battery tech hasn’t changed at all since the Model S in 2012.
