    Assuming we keep using lithium for cars batteries, the day 90%+ of all new car batteries are recycled lithium will be a pretty cool moment. Decades away though.

        I know. To have 90% of new vehicles use recycled lithium requires 10s of millions of cars being old enough to be recycled to cover the 10s of millions of new cars being built that year.

        Its decades away.
