    PHEVs have the same batteries as EVs, just smaller ones, which need the same rare earth metals.

    • Yeah, and it’ll be distributed a lot more people. You only need 100 miles of so of range for every day use and you eliminate any range of long distance issues. The only draw back is increased maintenance on the gas engine. A trade off many would be happy with vs most people who don’t want to go near a charging station.
