Just another needlessly costly scam. Just the fact they put a small solar panel and vertical WT, shows they are incompetent technically as not even a rounding error charging EVs.The solution is cheap and easy, just a pole drop to a prewired roll of stations they just roll out, glue down, connect to the pole. For those who need street charging, one can have their own pole drop cheaply, especially if on the pole. Another is a long FG pole over the sidewalk and drop down a cord to the EV.

Toyota has always just been an ICE manufacturer impersonating a green manufacturer. The hydrogen project was so small it was fully funded by California CARB credits, and with literally hundreds of hydrogen car sales, the board could completely ignore the project, as a nano-tech project with No Effect on Toyota gas sales. Toyota is still a majority ICE manufacturer. The Prius was a We-Hate-You green car too.
