Toyota Motor Corp. plans to install more high-speed chargers for electric cars at dealerships in Japan — a goal that adds to its existing network but falls short of the pledge it made to install 10 times that number.

The carmaker aims to have 500 fast chargers installed by the end of the fiscal year ending March 2026, a spokesperson said. There are currently 390 high-speed chargers and approximately 3,800 normal-speed chargers at its dealerships across Japan.
