According to strident prognostications of Tesla-boosters, world’s largest automakers are just about bankrupt. However, legacy dinosaurs show no signs of rolling over, and the desperate predictions are being ignored.
Toyota Group is firing on all cylinders, literally. Despite its BEV-skepticism, Toyota Group is far ahead of its contenders, and it might even break the 11-million-unit barrier when the year is over.

Ignoring the gloom&doom reports in the media, Volkswagen Group, up nearly 11% for the year, looks surprisingly sprightly.
Hyundai Group continues its steady climb upwards.
