Toyota once again ranked as worst automaker on climate lobbying globally

Toyota Ranked as Worst Automaker on Climate Lobbying

Toyota has the worst climate lobbying score of any automaker, according to InfluenceMap’s annual report on climate lobbying.

This ranking doesn’t just show Toyota's EV plans,

but also reveals how much the company is doing to try to stop governments from protecting the populace from pollution.

InfluenceMap routinely ranks automakers based on how much they lobby to stop climate policy goals.

These rankings consider automakers' EV plans

and how much they are doing to prevent governments from protecting the environment.

Tesla led the list, but only received a “B” score because of its low engagement intensity.

While Tesla supports positive climate policy, it doesn’t lobby as much as other organizations do.

The Japanese EV industry has been slow to electrify,

putting an important national industry at risk.

On production plans, most automakers score poorly,

with only 3 of the 15 automakers analyzed having commitments compatible with the International Energy Agency’s target of 66% EVs by 2030.

Toyota continues to hold the crown for worst automaker on climate, continuing the several years it has worn it.
