Automotive company | Market Cap | About |
|---|---|---|
Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) | $45.5 billion | Ford is a long-time market leader in pickup trucks and commercial vehicles, with operations worldwide. Ford is now investing in electric and automated vehicles to help it maintain that lead. However, relatively high interest rates have held EV growth back in recent years, and Ford is focusing on reducing costs and increasing EV capacity to make its EVs profitable. |
Ferrari NV (NYSE:RACE) | $80.4 billion | This Italian automaker is known for its expensive sports cars and years of racing success. Ferrari's strong brand and its long waiting list give it great pricing power and luxury-level profit margins. |
Tesla (NASDAQ:TSLA) | $1.1 trillion | The pioneering maker of "premium electric vehicles" has grown to be the world's most profitable EV automaker, and it dominates the U.S. EV market. Investors clearly expect great things from CEO Elon Musk and his team, and that includes ongoing EV sales, Robotaxis, and full self-driving (FSD) technology. |
Stellantis (NYSE:STLA) | $28.1 billion | Formed in 2021 through the merger of Fiat Chrysler and Peugeot, this automaker's brands include Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Opel, Vauxhall, and Peugeot. It also owns the Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati brands and has strong operations in Europe, South America, and the U.S. |
Volkswagen (OTC:VWAGY) | $57.7 billion | Volkswagen is one of the best-selling automakers outside the U.S. Its portfolio of brands includes VW, Skoda, and SEAT, plus the Audi, Lamborghini, Porsche, and Bentley luxury brands. |
Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM) | $253.6 billion | Established in 1937, the Japanese automotive giant's portfolio of brands includes Toyota, Lexus, Daihatsu, and Hino. The power of its brand and its global footprint make Toyota the largest car brand in the world in terms of sales. |
General Motors (NYSE:GM) | $52.9 billion | Owner of the GMC, Buick, Chevrolet, and Cadillac brands, GM is the largest car company in the U.S. in terms of sales. |
