In contrast, lead-acid batteries have a 99% recycling rate in the US. Other batteries are coming from battery energy storage systems. Grid stabilization, solar arrays, wind farms, and even home energy storage systems—some of those are coming offline and already going to their second set of batteries.

Toyota currently dominates the US hybrid market, with some 66% of sales in 2014; Ford takes the second spot, with 14% of the market. While the input power-split hybrid design used by Toyota and Ford is in its fourth generation, first-generation P2 hybrids are at a much earlier point on the learning curve.
