54 Organizations Demand Toyota Accelerate Global EV Transition Under New Leadership

A coalition of 54 consumer and environmental groups from 26 countries has urged Toyota to phase out internal combustion engine vehicles globally by 2035 and in Europe and the U.S. by 2030. This call aligns with the appointment of Toyota's new CEO, Koji Sato, who has a history of pushing for electrification at Lexus. The groups criticize Toyota's previous resistance to electric vehicles and demand an end to anti-climate lobbying, a commitment to using 100% renewable energy, and other sustainable practices.
