What's the future of the automobile? For all the attention Tesla and its CEO Elon Musk have received of late, the electric car is the logical guess.
汽车行业的未来在哪里?最近,特斯拉(Tesla)及其CEO埃隆·穆斯克可谓赚足了眼球,所以,电动汽车是符合逻辑的猜测。
Not at Toyota.
但丰田汽车(Toyota)并不这样认为。
Hybrid or alternative fuel vehicles made up 16% of Toyota's (TM) total sales last year – 10% of that number was from electric vehicles. That sector "will grow over time, as we see improvement in batteries," Jim Lentz, CEO of Toyota North America told the audience at Fortune's Brainstorm Green conference on Tuesday. "But we're really excited about this concept of fuel cell vehicles."
混合动力或替代燃料汽车占丰田汽车去年总销量的16%,其中,电动汽车占比为10%。在周二的《财富》(Fortune)绿色头脑风暴大会(Brainstorm Green)上,丰田北美公司(Toyota North America)CEO吉姆o伦茨对观众表示:“随着电池技术的改进,这个部门还会继续增长。但真正令我们感到兴奋的是燃料电池汽车的概念。”
Why? Because "it's an on-demand electric vehicle," Lentz said. "Rather than having a large heavy battery that takes a while to charge, you basically use hydrogen to produce electricity and water vapor." Another factor is that prices of batteries used in electric vehicles aren't dropping dramatically enough to offer consumers a long-range vehicle at a reasonable price. "It'll happen some day, but I can't tell you when that is," Lentz says. "The long term play is going to be fuel cell."
