This statistic shows the current and projected demand scenario for praseodymium used for electric traction motors in the European Union (EU), broken down by vehicle type. The greatest demand share for the rare earth element was driven by plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, at an estimated 140 metric tons by 2030. Demand for other rare earth elements used in traction motors, like dysprosium and neodymium were also expected to increase significantly.
