Today Toyota has a range of BEVs and is launching more as I type this.

Toyota has one BEV that was released at an unattractive price, with an unremarkable range, and with fairly unattractive styling. There's others upcoming, but it's just the one at the moment.

Toyota LITERALLY launched new EVs yesterday. On top of that what the fuck do you think the prime models are? They’re battery vehicles with less waste because they have generators onboard for longer range. Most people can accomplish their daily driving in EV mode effectively making them EVs. Which is better for the environment currently. Less gas usage when you’re around town, and an efficient motor that allows you to use less battery resources which require dirty AF mining.

Gas/Electric Hybrids. Not EVs.

Wait, you're calling battery mining "dirty AF", when the battery materials are mined exactly one time, while gasoline requires extraction again, and again, and again for the entire life of the car? I think you've got your priorities mixed up.
