As others have said - car battery raw materials don’t come from the EU, so our non-membership of that institution isn’t an issue. Any battery manufacturer anywhere in the world faces the same issues here. A lot of rare earths come from China, and an increasing number of mines elsewhere in the world are owned by Chinese companies (and are therefore under the influence of the Chinese Communist Party).
