I'm going to say that with current technology there is no way to make even 30% of new cars as electric vehicles.
There needs to be something huge, like membrane tech that pulls lithium salts out of sea water but before that happens we will need membranes that pull the lithium straight out of lithium rich brine from deep under ground brine operations.
Because right now brining uses evaporation ponds and if it rains too much you're screwed. Too much rain caused the last lithium shortage a few years back.
