It is not really that surprising VW group planning similar steps for Europe, and how can they plan differently when our politicians declared petrol and diesel will be banned. Obviously, they will continue to make petrol/diesel cars for regions where that is allowed. 

As for Lexus being fist before Toyota, that makes sense as well - Lexus is more premium brand, more expensive cars, so it is possible to sell them at higher price and cover some of development costs. £50k Toyota is thought sell, whereas exactly same car with Lexus badge on it sounds just about right.

the toyota BZR will be around 45k sterling in the UK. seems like a tad high compared to the VW and Skoda models.
