Interesting. Hopefully they do like Ford with the low end boost on the Ec0-boost. People love them for towing.

Toyota lost a lot of ground in converting their fleet to BEVs because they invested all their R and D effort in hydrogen fuel cell vehicles. Now they are compensating for this miscalculation by tweaking their ICE models, so expect more changes like this one in the future.
