The hesitancy of Japanese automotive giants like Toyota towards embracing new energy vehicles has garnered significant attention. In his column, Tetsuya Tada, the chief engineer behind the iconic AE86, delves into this phenomenon. He underscores that unlike Tesla and BYD, traditional automakers cannot fully dedicate themselves to the new energy sector, primarily hindered by their lengthy automotive manufacturing heritage. As emission regulations grow stricter, the combustion efficiency of conventional carburetors falls short, necessitating the adoption of computer-controlled combustion. However, traditional automakers operate with relatively outdated systems, and integrating complex operating systems into existing models presents numerous challenges. Consequently, Toyota and other traditional automakers appear more conservative in their transition to new energy sources.
