Im glad we agree on something. lol.
The Japan Olympics were supposed to be a showcase of hybrid, battery and fuel cell by Toyota. . Buses and athletes village along with the flame were supposed to be hydrogen powered. There were supposed to be a ton of battery smaller cars 2-1 over fuel cell. And there were supposed to be some hybrids as well. Coronavirus messed it all up.

TMC has no such technological advantage in BEVs (especially not lithium ion / cobalt batteries) and they know a fight with Tesla is impossible given supply constraints. But TMC has admitted they underestimated consumer demand for BEVs, and as you stated that's probably why they've been pushing harder on PHEVs.
