Hello Akio
Just to let you know my whole family owned
or owns a Toyota from Carina and Corona to
Land Cruiser. Id like to talk to you about electrical cars. As we both know charging battery takes long time and for example if a family is going to vacation, waiting to get the batteries charged is a huge frustration. I have an idea and it might come handy. Why dont we do like propane tanks? If you need a full propane tank,simply you go to the store, give them the empty tank, pay for the propane and leave. It takes few minutes. You can do the same thing: have stores to carry fully charged batteries( like gasoline stations we have everywhere right now) when a customer arrives, change the empty batteries with charged ones, charge customer for service and customer leaves, and again it takes few minutes. I think this is a very good way to promote all-electrical cars. You can either to other manufacturers to come up with a kind of standard procedure or you can have your own TOYOTA battery-exchange center everywhere.
I am sending you this idea because I like your cars and I am proud to have a Camry.
Regards
