One of the tricky things about EVs is that various components and materials are hard, if not impossible, to get from the US. That’s part of the reason that the EV tax credits that have been around the last few years (though possibly not much longer) have had stipulations requiring the use of certain amounts of US materials and manufacturing. The goal was to create incentives to get more material sourcing and production in the country. The future of those credits is in question, but that’s not stopping some automakers from continuing to invest in American parts sourcing. Lucid Motors announced a continuation of its partnership with Graphite One to get some graphite components that are made, from start to finish, in the US.
