Am I the only one not liking this? I’m not planning on buying one, but I’m a car guy, so I’m really into car, and I’m a Toyota person. Why are they making the new Camry hybrid and CVT only? I’ve heard CVT’s aren’t as good as traditional transmissions.

    Toyota is going about it in what I think is the best way. We need to ease into EVs more than they’re trying to right now. The tech still just isn’t there. For a while HEV and PHEV are going to be the go to until either charging tech or battery tech catches up.

    My “conspiracy theory”, if you can call it that, will be Toyota going hybrid but instead of a gas or diesel engine they’ll further refine hydrogen and use it as the fuel of choice if they can get enough momentum behind it.

    Thanks for coming to my TED talk.
