Jack Hollis, the chief operating officer of Toyota Motor North America, criticized California's EV regulations, stating: "At this point, it looks impossible. Demand isn't there. It's going to limit a customer's choice of the vehicles they want." He emphasized his belief that 35% of new vehicle sales being zero-emissions by 2026 is an unachievable target, expressing concern about the regulations stymieing consumer options in the market.
Hollis described the current regulations as leading to "unnatural acts" within the industry, indicating that such mandates may result in adverse consequences for both manufacturers and consumers. He stated, "If the regulations remain unchanged, it will lead to distortions in the market. We're concerned about how this impacts our ability to meet customer needs and choices." An industry expert expressing skepticism about achieving such stringent targets.
