I'm just saying that Toyota will start to lose market share. I don't believe they have the right mix for the future, even in this country. They'll hold their lead till they won't.

You remember how Ford and Holden had the right mix for Australia till they didn't. I foresee a similar fate for Toyota unless they change their long term plans.
But they aren't yet, its all the others that are losing it to Tesla and MG in the cheaper market.
Toyota don't need to be the innovators, they'll rely on their staunch supporter base that don't bother looking sideways and have plenty of market share to insulate them in the meantime.
When the time comes, and I can assure you they'd have done the numbers, they'll ramp up change.
