Yes, the europeans are advance in turbos, and rite now it seems that downsizing with turbo is the recipe for power and effieciency…but t he japanese dont want to be the follower, and be the second best…they want to create and carve out the technological trend belongs to them. Look at how toyota focused on hybrid tech long time ago, and today the european turbos like: BMW is collarborating with toyota for hybrid tech, volkwagen, audi, porsche start producing hybrids…Recently, the latest hypercars from ferrari, mclaren hv been incoperated with hybrid tech…Why ferrari never turbo-charge their engines, and put a hybrid into their fastest road car in history? I think they see what toyota ,honda, mazda etc see too…
If the japanese companies are using turbos nowadays, ( eg infinity borrows from mercedez, toyota with BMW..), thats for the short term gain ie : penetrating europe markets.
Turbo, as what we see now, might be the future, but who dares to say hybrid is not? The focus in different technologies from different car companies is the key to open up more possibilities for advancement in mobility. The result of combination of technologies or the ideas will create something even better…
So, let the japanese do what they do best for now, bcoz they are not stupid, they now what they are doing.
They are not losing the wars, they are only losing some battles if u insist, but the war will never end.
Sorry if u feel this is boring.

All these city ‘kei’ cars represents the symbol of japs auto. Fun and iconic.

Btw, I think we can see 2 different characters of East and West approach to automotive engineering. Canr really direct compare. But now turbo is the trend. Even Proton has decided to go FI.
