Toyota Innovates More Earth Friendly Production of Hybrids
Toyota disclosed that it has discovered a way to manufacture electric and hybrid vehicles without utilizing expensive rare-earth metals. The dependency on these metals complicates the manufacturing process, and a new substitute for rare Earth metals would lighten the requirements and expenses required to manufacture these types of vehicles. It would also circumvent export laws and lessen the dependency on mining.

Toyota faced with a ban on rare earth materials has developed a new way to produce Hybrids that is more earth friendly.
