This breaks the norm of a fuel cell vehicle run solely on hydrogen or simply with a battery for energy storage. MPGe is a measurement of how far a car can travel electrically, on the same amount of energy as is contained in 1 gallon of gasoline. For all operations, the company aims to reach carbon neutrality by 2050.

Mineral market analysis company Benchmark estimates that at least 74 lithium, 55 cobalt, 64 nickel and 97 graphite mines, as well as 54 new synthetic graphite factories will be needed by 2035 to meet the global demand for EV and renewable energy storage batteries. Each mine and factory will need hundreds of workers to operate them.
