But it would be a mistake to 79 its impact — or the skill of the engineers who built it. “Corporate engineers usually get 80 because we wonder if all the hard work is 81 ,” says Ogiso. “But this was a project worthy of the challenges and the difficulties.” It’s the Toyota way — and as the need for innovation grows, perhaps the way ahead for all of us.
