My intent was to say they're late to the party in a lot of markets and that gave other manufacturers an advantage. That is literally it. I'm really not sure why you have to keep stating the obvious.

    You were making a claim that Toyota won't overtake the Korean manufacturers in the US anytime soon. I'm sharing data that shows that Toyota is already on the cusp of overtaking them by the end of this year, and might even overtake GM for #2 within a year after that.

    EV sales are still unfortunately less than 10% of new car sales in the US. It's still early days for the US market, so being slow to market isn't going to be a significant disadvantage.
