JAPANESE AUTOMAKERS IN HIGH GEAR TO BOOST EV SALES

- Japanese automakers’ drive to tap the potentially lucrative electric vehicle market has swung into full gear as they are eager not to miss out on the global shift to electrification.

- But with no clear outlook on how much the Japanese market will expand after falling far behind the U.S., European and Chinese markets, they are struggling to find a path to success in “an era where no one knows the right answer,” as one senior Toyota Motor official put it.

- Japanese industry leader Toyota released the bZ4X electric SUV, its first mass-produced EV model, in Japan. The bZ4X is available only under a subscription system, reflecting Toyota’s aim of alleviating drivers’ concerns, primarily over battery degradation, by setting fixed monthly fees including maintenance expenses.

- Terminal values for EVs, which indicate their future value, tend to be assessed relatively low

- The factor has been singled out as a psychological impediment to new EV purchases and thus as a roadblock to wider use of EVs in Japan.

- “We should take on risks regarding trade-in prices, a major source of worry for drivers, and battery degradation,” said Shinya Kotera, president of Kinto Corp., which operates subscription services for Toyota models.
