Both companies are tied at 26/100 on SINK's sustainability index.
Tesla, Inc. scores 26/100 on the SINK sustainability index (Significant gaps). Tesla reports rising absolute emissions despite renewable energy progress, lacks SBTi targets or net-zero timeline, and faces multiple unresolved regulatory violations and cobalt supply chain allegations. Strong battery recycling and factory-level water achievements are outweighed by expanding operational footprint, absent biodiversity policy, and CEO actions actively undermining US climate institutions.
Toyota Motor scores 26/100 on the SINK sustainability index (Significant gaps). Toyota is the world's largest automaker producing over 10 million vehicles annually, yet its emissions footprint of 589.57 Mt CO₂e remains stubbornly high with minimal absolute reductions. The company actively lobbies against climate regulations globally, funds climate deniers, faces greenwashing complaints, and ranks lowest among automakers on climate policy alignment—undermining all operational progress.
Both companies are rated on the same 10-question SINK rubric: Scope 1/2/3 carbon footprint, energy source, nature and biodiversity, resource use, water, emissions trajectory, science-based targets, transparency, and controversies. Scores are 0–100, based on public data, and fully reproducible.
