I've been patiently watching and waiting for Toyota to release a maverick competitor (often said to be called the Toyota Stout) to replace my Mav since 2023... There's been rumors and hints at this since the Mav came out, I'll believe it when they actually reveal something.

The Prius C was made in Japan, shipped to the USA, and was their cheapest (and smallest) hybrid option till they stopped US sales in 2017. If it's a small production unit, and without having to abide by certain battery standards to get the ev credit, a Japanese manufacturing is possible...

My old Prius C was 11 second 0 to 60, it was fine, you usually get up to speed on the on ramp anyways. Safety wise it's fine, but if people are looking for pep they're not going to be looking here anyways.

But also it's a simple EV, that's not locking features behind apps and paywalls. And not overly engineered to fail after one plastic piece (hopefully). If I can do any repairs myself, it's already a buy in my book, being able to charge for free at work and home/solar is just added benefit

The day I preordered my Maverick was the day I said I'd trade it in a heartbeat for a Toyota pickup that gets 40mpg+... But somehow still nothing

I own a Ford Maverick... And it's been in the shop a cumulative of 4 weeks in the 2 years and 25k miles I owned it, ranging from benign recalls, broken seat belt buckles, hood latch broke, both CV Axels needing replaced, head unit replaced... I'm at my wits end with the truck. I'd gladly take...

Being a new car, and an EV. I would only imagine it's going to be LED for the simplicity and power savings

Just gotta have to start hitting the gym! I got 18 months for those gains

Heck, if there was battery extenders to just throw in the bed, I'd use those for longer road trips

I'm not saying that they should publish DIY instructions, but that the engineering behind it would be more user conscious. Unlike say Tesla where you have to rip out the entire interior to get to the batteries. There's also quick disconnects for wiring and no leak quick disconnects for cooling...

I know it won't be as easy to modify as say the backseats/panels. But the one feature that would make me keep an EV forever would be being able to replace the battery pack reasonably easy in a garage maybe with some help. I'm curious how complex this would be on the slate
