I can think of two times that Toyota began offering options that contradicted previous statements. The first was that solar panels were not cost effective and the second was that the batteries were not designed for electric-only use and that using them in that fashion would cause them to degrade quickly.

I believe the argument that changed their minds was "Take my money."
