Toyota is the master at slow walking EV production. Oct 3 (Reuters) - Toyota Motors will postpone the start of electric-vehicle production in North America to the first half of 2026 due to design adjustment and slowing EV sales, the Nikkei business daily reported on Thursday.

The Japanese automaker recently told suppliers the start date for production of its first battery EV model at its factory in the U.S. state of Kentucky - a three-row SUV - will be delayed by several months, the Nikkei said.
