Oh yeah silly me

Hi Toyota PR. Just to let you know, you've released your April fools jape 6 weeks too early.

HTH.

*facepalm*

Sounds horrendous! I'd much rather it be select drive and go if I had an electric car.

They're also working on a holographic "man with a flag" to walk along in front of the car at all times.

He’ll scream if you want to go faster.

Maybe they can add some random breakdown code that will halt the car in it's tracks without warning and leave you stranded till a man with a computer comes and plugs in to reset it? Would be about as much use for generating character!

I don't know how you ever generate any character for an EV.
