Toyota aims to have about 15 electric vehicle models developed on its own by 2027 and is targeting production of about 1 million cars a year by then, the Nikkei newspaper said on Sunday.


Toyota declined to comment, saying the information was not announced by the company.


Toyota has five EV models developed in-house, manufacturing them only in Japan and China, the Nikkei said. Expanding production to the United States, Thailand and Argentina can help hedge against tariff and foreign exchange risks and cut delivery times, it added.
