Opening up sales to other states would defeat Toyota's compliance mandate. Toyota is loosing money on every one they produce so why would they throw good money after bad. They need to move about 75 per month to average out the compliance production number. Not 275 and not to any other state...

Good luck with that logic. Tony's posting of the candid remarks by Elon Musk make it clear that Toyota BEV's desires are non-existant and its underscored by the lack of any Tesla badging on the vehicle. Not even a tiny sticker! That could be by Toyota's, Tesla's or both insistence. Seems...

This clearly tells me that whine was not normal. I rented the same RAV from South Coast Toyota as occ did and the whine stopped me from going forward with a purchase. My Leaf is silky smooth and silent in comparison. I could live with the ride dynamics but the gearbox noise was awful. Upon...

RAV4 EV Rental Test.........Pleased with range would be a understatement! Left Costa Mesa with 100% entended range charge and headed to Palm Springs. 102 miles door-2-door with a elevation peak of 2500' in Beaumont. Arrived in downtown Palm Springs with 40 remaining on the display. No heat...
