Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk doubled down on his longtime <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/43327837/tesla-ceo-elon-musk-dismises-lidar-again-says-if-humans-drive-without-shooting-lasers-from-their-eyes-so-can-autonomous-cars">skepticism of LiDAR technology</a> on Thursday following the videos of YouTubers testing his EV vehicles against a ‘Wile E. Coyote' fake wall challenge.
What Happened: Musk took to X, formerly Twitter, to repeat a key pillar of Tesla's self-driving vision: cameras and AI are all you need.
"People don't shoot lasers out of their eyes to drive," Musk wrote, sharing an old clip from Tesla's 2019 Autonomy Day. "Just try Tesla self-driving today, which just uses cameras and AI, and you will understand."
In the video, Musk called LiDAR a "fool's errand," saying, "Anyone relying on LiDAR is doomed. Doomed! Expensive sensors that are unnecessary… like having a whole bunch of expensive appendices."

However, in a twist, a 2024 earnings report from LiDAR manufacturer Luminar revealed that Tesla had quietly become its biggest customer. The EV giant accounted for over 10% of Luminar's first-quarter revenue, totaling more than $2 million.

Why It's Important: Musk's latest statement on LiDAR came just weeks after a YouTube video by Mark Rober, known for his science and engineering experiments, surfaced.
The video tested Tesla's camera-only Autopilot/FSD system against a LiDAR-based setup powered by Luminar's technology.
The results indicated that the LiDAR system outperformed the camera-based approach, mainly due to its superior performance in fog and rain, where visibility is reduced.

In response to Rober&#8217;s Tesla fake wall test, creator Kyle Paul shared his video aiming to explore whether the company's Full Self-Driving (FSD) system can detect a Wile E. Coyote-style road obstruction in real-world conditions.
In Paul's experiment, the Model Y running FSD version 12.5.4.2 performed no better than in Rober's test—requiring manual intervention to avoid crashing into the fake wall, which appeared less convincing to the human eye. However, Tesla saw a glimmer of success with the Cybertruck, running FSD version 13.2.8, which successfully detected the obstruction and slowed down, ultimately coming to complete stop.

Meanwhile, China has also made significant progress in lidar innovation. According to Tokyo-based Patent Result, Chinese companies have filed over 25,000 lidar-related patent applications since 2000—far more than the 18,000 from American firms or the 13,000 from Japanese companies, <a href="https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/China-extends-lead-in-lidar-tech-crucial-to-self-driving-cars">reported</a> Nikkei Asia in 2024.
Chinese firms like Hesai Technology and RoboSense now dominate the global lidar market. Hesai, which supplies companies like GM Cruise and Baidu Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BIDU#NASDAQ">BIDU</a>), held a 47% market share in 2022.
Last month, it was reported that Hesai Technology Inc.

Under the agreement, Hesai will supply LiDAR sensors for over 10 of BYD's upcoming models, which are set for mass production in 2025.

What Happened: The Taiwan-based contract manufacturer, known for producing iPhones for Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>) and AI servers for Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>), is leveraging its newly hired Chief EV Strategy Officer Jun Seki, a former Nissan executive, to showcase its automotive ambitions, Reuters reported, citing sources.

Nvidia And Apple Supplier Foxconn To Present EV Plans At Japan Seminar Following Mitsubishi Deal: Report

President Donald Trump&#8216;s announcement of a 25% tariff on auto imports has sparked widespread concern among economists and market analysts, with many warning of potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44506345/trump-imposes-25-tariffs-on-auto-imports-says-this-will-continue-to-spur-growth-canada-eu-slam-the-move">severe economic consequences</a>.
What Happened: The tariffs, set to take effect on Apr. 3, aim to boost domestic auto manufacturing but could trigger significant market disruption. Prominent economists have raised alarms about the potential economic fallout. Peter Schiff highlighted that the tariffs will increase car prices and potentially put upward pressure on interest rates.

Trump's 25% Auto Tariff Raises Will Put Pressure On Interest Rates, Says Economist — Tesla Investor Gary Black Says President Found 'Further Ways To Push The Economy Into Recession Today'

President Donald Trump declared on Wednesday the introduction of a 25% tariff on auto imports. This decision aims to stimulate domestic production but could financially strain automakers dependent on international supply chains.
What Happened: The tariffs, poised to generate $100 billion annually, are set to be enforced starting April 3, <a href="https://apnews.com/article/autos-tariffs-trump-tax-imports-ford-gm-e53823ef7bbb7b3c46d11eca90aaa638?user_email=97d05b29432d778bbb1ffb8f16f2769451bf1d6125981f71ceccbe18ec8d01d8&amp;utm_medium=APNews_Alerts&amp;utm_source=Sailthru_AP&amp;utm_campaign=NewsAlert_Mar26_2025_05:37PM&amp;utm_term=AP%20News%20Alerts#">reported</a> the Associated Press. The administration anticipates that the increased costs will incentivize the opening of more factories within the U.S., thereby reducing dependence on global supply chains. However, American automakers, who rely on components sourced globally, might face heightened expenses and reduced sales.
&#8220;This will continue to spur growth,&#8221; said Trump on his decision, according to the Press.
Under the USMCA trade pact covering the United States, Mexico, and Canada, the 25% tariffs would only affect non-U.S. content in autos and parts.
The administration argues that U.S. automakers have enough excess capacity to increase domestic production and bypass the tariffs. An official also pointed out that automakers have been aware of the potential tariffs since Trump&#8217;s campaign.
Shares of General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) dropped by over 3% on Wednesday, while Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) experienced a slight uptick. Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), the parent company of Jeep and Chrysler, saw its stock value decline by nearly 3.6%.
International leaders, including Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, have criticized the tariffs, suggesting a potential escalation into a global trade conflict. Trump also proposed a tax incentive for American-made vehicles, allowing buyers to deduct auto loan interest from federal taxes.
Carney said, &#8220;This is a very direct attack.&#8221; The Prime Minister vowed to defend Canadian workers and companies. He said, &#8220;We will defend our country.&#8221;

Why It Matters: The announcement follows&nbsp;<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44494096/trump-hints-at-more-lenient-stance-on-upcoming-april-tariffs-with-just-minor-considerations-i-dont-want-to-have-too-many-exceptions">Trump&#8217;s earlier hints</a>&nbsp;that the tariffs might be less stringent than initially anticipated, offering some relief to investors. During a Newsmax interview, Trump suggested a more lenient approach, acknowledging minimal exceptions.
Earlier, Trump had indicated that while&nbsp;<a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/global/25/03/44468587/trump-announces-auto-tariffs-are-imminent-but-some-countries-might-receive-exemptions">tariffs on automobiles were imminent</a>, not all would be enforced by April 2.

Trump Imposes 25% Tariffs On Auto Imports, Says 'This Will Continue To Spur Growth' — Canada, EU Slam The Move

NBA legend <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/michael-jordan">Michael Jordan</a> once famously said, "Republicans buy sneakers too," emphasizing his choice to steer clear of politics while his iconic shoes propelled Nike to the pinnacle of sports retail.
That&#8217;s advice Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shareholders may wish the company&#8217;s CEO, Elon Musk, had taken to heart. Shares are down more than 32% this year, as Musk&#8217;s heavy involvement with the new administration has cratered Tesla&#8217;s electric vehicle (EV) sales.
Tesla sales are down 40% in Europe compared to last year, even as total EV sales soared by 26%. The picture is only slightly rosier in the U.S., with Tesla sales down 11% in January. In China, the world&#8217;s largest market for electric vehicles, Tesla has been overtaken by a domestic rival for the first time.
But all this bad news for Tesla has been great news for other EV makers.&nbsp;
Here are four non-Tesla EV stocks set to profit from soaring EV sales.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">BYD Company Ltd. </h2>
News of BYD Company's (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) battery breakthrough earlier this month sent the stock to new all-time highs. BYD's new Super-E platform promises to provide a range of 249 miles with a simple five-minute charge, easing a major customer concern. However, investors with keen eyes have had BYD on their radar for a while, as the stock has risen 88% in the last 12 months (including a 43% rip over the previous three). As mentioned above, the company is now outselling Tesla in China, and the government has been providing very accommodating policies.  
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfM2z7gHUuogWEKJa-lAi6iBZUGWj6awqkR3voSSyh2u9u4VbaTd-TlfODhmSI9rOMXKap_zYq3xpbpqHgRJ4CCYDl_yfrZPu1XbxKdKbIQtrwV9k9eZqBg4DTk9Lbm3VT4rS5riw?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
BYD is a conglomerate with several divisions. BYD Auto is the most well-known, thanks to its electric and hybrid vehicles and battery charging solutions. Still, the company also has BYD Electronics and FinDream, which manufacture electronic parts, vehicle components and batteries. The automotive division brings in 80% of the company's revenue. The stock trades at 32 times earnings, far cheaper than TSLA, and the chart shows signs of the uptrend continuing. The share price is firmly above both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that the upside momentum remains intact.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Volkswagen AG </h2>
The German automotive giant, Volkswagen Ag (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) is finally showing signs of breaking out of a multi-year downtrend. Tesla's losses in Europe have been Volkswagen's gains as registration numbers are skyrocketing for several of the firm's vehicles, including the newest top-selling European battery-powered EV: the Volkswagen ID.4. The Volkswagen ID.7 had the third most number of registrations to start the year, an upswing of more than 650%. On the plug-in hybrid side, the Volkswagen Tiguan is the second-highest-selling model in 2025, with an upstick of 250% over the previous period in 2024.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfYQknuvziPa7-p8xwVvZ-xuCgD8wDNXevExx1y2ZaRxvnZgDIRgmwpaWw2WDXEhxzM0YT4qNY9PA1VVi9-EsovSNcvzWl8G3q1W4VZEWTh68xkyfvzTbaZfZMefm8FbB-pcArUhg?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
Volkswagen stock is down more than 25% in the last 12 months, but momentum is beginning to turn. Shares are up over 20% year-to-date, and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), a momentum indicator, is starting to send bullish signals. VWAGY trades at just 4.8 times earnings and pays a healthy 8% dividend yield. And let's not forget the stimulus set to be unleashed in Germany, some of which will surely find its way to automakers like Volkswagen.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Toyota Motors Corp. </h2>
Toyota Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) is the world&#8217;s largest automaker, with a market cap above $251 billion and an annual revenue of about $309 billion. Toyota is choosing to focus on plug-in hybrids over full-battery electric cars, and the RAV4 SUV is a top choice for customers looking for a mix of electric and gas power.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXevHa0rGDdutIcd7zGUpjsCGBSwfOmIZ7LA4i7xQFaZdN3xbxyTQ-gNNd_iqhl6YL-JXt01MIbQuT6A_d0VzjjjPMH-EMdTEV0OXGCIpLyQOAaTPcauHCBe-Jyj6d3XehY0bbHjHg?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
Toyota controls more than 10% of the world's automobile market share, giving it a tremendous opportunity to eat into Tesla's EV sales. The company already has high margins, reporting a 20.32% gross margin rate and a 10.86% profit margin rate in the most recent quarter. The stock has a forward Price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 8.80 and a Price-to-sales (P/S) rate of 0.86, implying this $250 billion behemoth is undervalued. Additionally, the stock pays a 3.5% dividend yield and scored a 97.95 in Value and 98.51 in Quality on Benzinga Edge rankings, indicating both short- and medium-term upside. Another bullish signal was triggered recently as the stock price breached the 50-day moving average after nearly a year of trading below it.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Honda Motor Co Ltd. </h2>
Honda Motor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) may not dominate the automobile market share like Toyota. Still, the Tokyo-based manufacturer is known for its highly reliable and safe vehicles, such as the popular Honda Accord and Civic sedan models. The company also has several hybrids and electric cars on its line, including the plug-in versions of the Accord, Civi, and CR-V, a fully electric Honda Prologue, and the fuel cell-powered CR-V e-FCEV.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdNNi5Exlsi5hp2HlXYjcS4rrE5aHGSxDmL4IvduKM6rCtkNdsKWQfGrWCI3VDWK8NsR6pZdo-srsIvFIRhbDAs_JeuTj0NiJqN45Hw3fHf4jF0Dxv6bTk-5iL64kFy-gPzr25d?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
HMC scores a 99.67 in Value and 98.67 in Quality on Benzinga Edge; it trades at just 6.6 times forward earnings and 0.32 times sales. And while a 4.8% profit margin is something Tesla would scoff at, it's still a fair number for an automobile manufacturer. The stock hit a multi-year bottom in December 2024 but has since recovered from under $23 to over $30 to start 2025. Like Toyota, this stock is hovering near its 50-day moving average, which had previously acted as a resistance level. Toyota broke through this resistance. Keep tracking Honda to see if its stock does the same.

Alibaba, BMW Team Up To Bring AI-Powered Smart Assistant In Next-Gen China Cars

Wall Street soared Monday, kicking off the week in full risk-on mode as investors welcomed signs of easing trade tensions and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/03/44459470/us-business-activity-rebounds-as-services-growth-outpaces-forecasts-yet-cost-pressures-intensify">stronger-than-expected economic data. </a>
President Donald Trump&#8216;s softer tone on potential tariffs ahead of the looming April 2, 2025 deadline helped calm nerves. Adding to the optimism, fresh business surveys showed a strong rebound in services activity in March, easing recession worries.
U.S. economic activity accelerated in March, with the Composite Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) rising rom 51.6 in February to to 53.5. Services PMI jumped to 54.3 — well above consensus forecasts of 50.8 and sharply higher than the prior month's 51.0 reading. Yet, the report also flagged a notable uptick in cost pressures, as businesses reported growing concerns over input prices, likely linked to heightened speculation around potential tariff measures.
The S&amp;P 500 jumped 1.75% by midday in New York, on track for its best one-day performance since mid-January. The Nasdaq 100 rallied 2%, mirroring gains from March 14 — the index's strongest day since early November 2024.
Small caps outperformed their large-cap peers, underscoring the market's improving risk appetite. The Russell 2000 surged 2.8%, marking its best session since the post-election rally on Nov. 6, 2024.
Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) led the charge on both the S&amp;P 500 and Nasdaq 100, soaring 9.8%, on track for its sharpest one-day gain since early November.
All seven mega-cap tech stocks posted solid gains, with the Roundhill Magnificent Seven ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MAGS#NYSE">MAGS</a>) climbing 2.9% after Friday's 1.4% rise, setting up what could be its strongest two-day advance since early January.
Every S&amp;P 500 sector, except utilities, traded in positive territory, with consumer discretionary and technology leading the pack.
The U.S. dollar index edged higher, eyeing a fourth consecutive session of gains. Meanwhile, Treasury yields spiked across the curve as investors rotated out of safe-haven assets. The 10-year yield jumped seven basis points to 4.32%, while the iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) dropped 0.9%.
Gold pulled back 0.3% to $3,014 per ounce, on pace for its third straight decline, as investors favored riskier assets.
Oil prices gained 1.5% after Trump threatened a 25% tariff on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44460897/oil-prices-rally-exxon-hits-16-week-highs-as-trump-vows-25-tariffs-on-any-country-buying-venezuelan-crude">countries importing Venezuelan crude.</a>
Crypto-related assets also rallied. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) climbed 2.7% to $88,400, while MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSTR#NASDAQ">MSTR</a>) jumped 7.4% and Coinbase Global Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/COIN#NASDAQ">COIN</a>) rose 6.2%.

S&P 500 Rallies On Best Day In 2 Months As Recession Fears Ease, Tesla Rockets, Bitcoin Hits $88,000: What's Driving Markets Monday?

Beijing has reportedly put on hold the approval for BYD Co Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>) to set up a manufacturing plant in Mexico amid fear of key technology leakage to the U.S.
What Happened: For Chinese automakers to manufacture overseas, they need approval from China&#8217;s commerce ministry. The ministry has not yet given the go-ahead due to concerns that Mexico could gain unrestricted access to BYD&#8217;s advanced technology and know-how, possibly granting the U.S. access to it, according to <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/36ae6f78-aadb-47bb-a5cd-ec69b420cbe1">a</a> report from the&nbsp;Financial Times&nbsp;on Thursday.
BYD, China&#8217;s largest electric-vehicle maker had previously announced plans in 2023 to establish&nbsp;an automobile plant in Mexico. The company also expressed intentions to manufacture cars in Brazil, Hungary, and Indonesia. The proposed Mexican plant is expected to generate 10,000 jobs and manufacture 150,000 vehicles per year.
&#8220;The commerce ministry&#8217;s biggest concern is Mexico&#8217;s proximity to the U.S.,&#8221; a source familiar with the matter told FT. Beijing is also focusing on projects in countries participating in China&#8217;s Belt and Road Initiative infrastructure development program.
BYD&#8217;s Executive Vice-President, Stella Li, stated that the company has &#8220;not&nbsp;decided [on] the Mexico facility&nbsp;yet&#8221;. In February 2024, Zou Zhou, manager of BYD Mexico, reiterated that the company was exploring the possibility of establishing an electric vehicle (EV) plant in Mexico.
SEE ALSO: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/25/03/44395095/recession-would-be-a-big-catalyst-for-bitcoin-blackrocks-head-of-digital-assets-says">Recession Would Be &#8216;A Big Catalyst For Bitcoin,&#8217; BlackRock&#8217;s Head Of Digital Assets Says</a>
Why It Matters: The shifting geopolitical dynamics and Mexico&#8217;s efforts to maintain relations with the US have also contributed to the delay. The U.S. suspects that Mexico serves as a &#8220;backdoor&#8221; for Chinese goods to enter the country duty-free under the North American Free Trade Agreement.
In retaliation, Mexico has imposed tariffs on Chinese textiles and initiated anti-dumping investigations into steel and aluminum products from China.
This delay in approval comes at a time when BYD is making significant strides in the EV market. On Monday, BYD unveiled a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/03/44369228/byd-unveils-5-minute-ev-charging-breakthrough-strengthening-edge-over-tesla-stock-spikes-4">groundbreaking charging system</a> that can fully charge an EV in just five minutes, potentially eliminating one of the biggest barriers to EV adoption worldwide. 
This technological breakthrough has strengthened BYD&#8217;s competitive edge over other EV makers, including Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). The delay in setting up the Mexican plant could potentially impact BYD&#8217;s global expansion plans and its position in the EV market.
The US-ADR of BYD climbed 12.2% over the past month, as per <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>. The ADR climbed 2.47% on Tuesday to close at $52.67.

Beijing Pauses Approval For BYD's Mexico Plant Over Tech Leak Worries: 'Biggest Concern Is Mexico's Proximity To The US'

Zhejiang, China-based electric vehicle (EV) company Zeekr Intelligent Tech (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ZK#NYSE">ZK</a>) plans to launch advanced driver-assistance capabilities for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/electric-vehicle">free to local customers</a>.
Zeekr CEO Andy An shared this development ahead of a launch event today, according <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/18/teslas-china-rival-zeekr-to-roll-out-free-advanced-driver-assistance.html">to</a> CNBC.
The system will enable cars to function almost autonomously, provided that drivers maintain their hands on the steering wheel and regulatory approval is granted in most cities across China.
Zeekr intends to utilize Nvidia Corp&#8216;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) Orin X chips and lidar technology for its system with plans to deploy more advanced chips and lidar sensors.
Nvidia expects its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42836673/toyotas-next-gen-vehicles-to-use-nvidia-supercomputer-operating-system">automotive vertical business</a> to grow to about $5 billion in 2026 from $4 billion expected this year.

BYD Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), China&#8217;s leading electric vehicle maker, has introduced a groundbreaking charging system that can fully charge an EV in the time it takes to refuel a gasoline car, potentially eliminating one of the biggest <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44359054/byd-reveals-5-minute-ev-battery-charging-system-bloomberg">barriers to EV adoption worldwide</a>.
What Happened: Chairman Wang Chuanfu announced that in tests, the new system charged the Han L model with 292 miles of <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44359054/byd-reveals-5-minute-ev-battery-charging-system-bloomberg">range in just five minutes</a>. 
BYD&#8217;s Hong Kong-listed shares rose 4.05% to 401.20 HKD ($51.63) on Tuesday, continuing a strong year that has seen the stock surge 53% year-to-date.
The rapid charging technology will be integrated into BYD&#8217;s upcoming electric models, further strengthening its competitive position against rivals like Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).

Why It Matters: By offering a charging experience comparable to traditional gas station visits, BYD addresses the charging downtime concern that has made many consumers hesitant to switch from <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/news/25/03/44359054/byd-reveals-5-minute-ev-battery-charging-system-bloomberg">internal combustion vehicles</a>.
The charging breakthrough comes as BYD pursues aggressive expansion in Europe. The company is reportedly considering Germany for its third European assembly plant, following facilities already planned in Hungary and Turkey. BYD is reportedly avoiding countries that supported EU tariffs on <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44354592/warren-buffett-backed-byd-eyes-germany-for-third-european-plant-amid-tariff-concerns-report">Chinese-made EVs imposed last year</a>.

BYD Unveils 5-Minute EV Charging Breakthrough, Strengthening Edge Over Tesla— Stock Spikes 4%

BYD Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), China's leading electric vehicle maker, has introduced a groundbreaking charging system that rivals the speed of refueling a gasoline car, Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-17/byd-unveils-battery-system-that-charges-an-ev-in-five-minutes?srnd=homepage-americas">reports</a>. 
What To Know: Chairman Wang Chuanfu announced that in tests, the new system charged the Han L model with 292 miles of range in just five minutes. This innovation could address a major hurdle for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/electric-vehicle">EV adoption</a>—long charging times—potentially swaying hesitant consumers. 
The technology will be integrated into BYD's upcoming electric models, further strengthening its position in the global EV race against Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). Per the Bloomberg report, independent industry analyst Lei Xing called it a game-changer for the industry.

Despite the major technological leap, BYD's Hong Kong-listed shares traded flat on Monday but have otherwise surged 49% on a year-to-date basis.
What Else: By offering a charging experience comparable to refueling a gasoline car, BYD could eliminate one of the biggest consumer concerns—charging downtime. 
This development could attract a broader range of buyers, including those who have been hesitant to switch from internal combustion engine vehicles due to range anxiety and long wait times at charging stations.

BYD Reveals 5-Minute EV Battery Charging System: Bloomberg

Warren Buffett-backed Chinese EV giant BYD Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>) is reportedly contemplating establishing a third assembly plant in Germany.
What Happened: According to a report by Reuters, BYD is looking to expand its manufacturing footprint in Europe and is considering Germany for its third plant. This move comes after Germany, Europe&#8217;s largest economy, opposed EU tariffs on Chinese-made electric vehicles last year.
The company is planning the third plant to expand its manufacturing footprint in Europe to boost sales of its affordable vehicles and compete with European rivals. With this, the company aims to circumvent import tariffs imposed by the EU on China-made EVs in the previous year.
Stella Li, BYD&#8217;s executive vice president, previously mentioned the possibility of a third European facility in an interview with Automobilwoche. While Hungary and Turkey are already in the works, Germany is a leading candidate for the new plant.

However, the decision is under scrutiny due to Germany&#8217;s high labor and energy costs, as well as low productivity and flexibility. The report, citing a source who wished to remain anonymous, noted that BYD is also considering Western Europe to enhance brand recognition and acceptance as a local manufacturer.
Why It Matters: The potential establishment of a new plant in Germany is part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/penny-stocks/24/07/39690741/byd-has-its-eyes-set-on-conquering-europe">BYD&#8217;s aggressive expansion strategy</a> in Europe. The company has already made significant strides by entering the Greek market with its popular Atto 3 and Seal EV models.
BYD is adhering to Beijing&#8217;s directive to avoid investing in countries that supported the EU tariffs, excluding some EU nations like Italy and France from consideration. The final decision will depend on BYD&#8217;s sales performance in Europe and the capacity utilization of its Hungarian and Turkish plants.
In July 2024, BYD announced a $1 billion factory in Turkey. This facility is expected to produce 150,000 EVs annually, further solidifying BYD&#8217;s foothold in the region.

Global

Warren Buffett-Backed BYD Eyes Germany For Third European Plant Amid Tariff Concerns: Report

President Donald Trump's decision to slap tariffs on Canada, Mexico and China includes levies on auto imports from all three countries. Additionally, 25% tariffs on steel and aluminum were tacked on and triggered on March 12.
S&amp;P Global said the most likely scenario is an "extended disruption period lasting 16 to 20 weeks," with "several high exposure vehicles" either slowing or ceasing production.
That's bad news for many car makers, who ship steel, parts and even whole vehicles across North America before they're sold. 
But look deeper and some sectors of the auto industry may actually prosper from these tariffs.
Here are four car companies set to benefit from the tariff tit-for-tat. 
Market experts say disruption is the rule going forward across the globe – and with American and European automakers looking better going forward.
"Trump&#8217;s tariffs on steel, aluminum, and Chinese imports are placing production expense on American automakers, constricting margins for foreign-part-dependent companies," said Fei Chen, founder and CEO at Intellectia.AI, a financial intelligence company.
"Diversified Japanese and European automakers are less impacted. Chinese automakers, especially BYD and Geely, could benefit most as China doubles down on domestic EV manufacturing and export efforts, focusing on tariff-friendly markets in Asia, the Middle East, and Latin America," Chen said.
High tariff activity is causing automaker CEOs to alter their strategic planning, which casts additional clouds on auto stocks.
"Right now, the administration's tariffs are forcing automakers to examine their supply base to see what the easiest shifts may be to ease some of the burden on what components are produced where," said Brian Sponheimer, portfolio manager at Gabelli Funds. "For production of full product lines to be moved from Mexico or Canada to the US, the cost would be measured in billions, so automakers must choose whether that cost makes sense on a long-term basis given the potential for a tariff increase that may not be measured in multiple years."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Auto Stocks To Test Drive In 2025</h2>
In such a chaotic sector environment, which auto stocks stand out during the tariff wars? Here's what industry experts have to say.
Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) – Tesla hasn't gotten off to a great start, but tariffs may give the stock a much-needed tune-up. "Love it or hate it, they&#8217;re the EV champs," said Alex Black, chief marketing officer at EpicVIN. "Tariff-free importation of strategic battery components plus brand loyalty will sustain them."
Toyota (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) This Japanese automaker should continue to thrive mainly due to its diverse supply base and strong hybrid offerings, making Toyota "tariff and rising production cost-resistant," Chen said.
BYD (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) The Chinese giant EV maker, with strong demand, is growing in Europe and Latin America. "They&#8217;re vertically integrated, so they have cost control superior to most," Black said.
Chen agreed. "As the automaker expanding beyond U.S. borders, it's escaping tariffs as it capitalizes on global EV demand." 
General Motors (NYSE: GM), a home grown legend, GM has based its domestic production in Detroit MI, and "now it's in prime position to be at the forefront of production locally and to combat the challenges that most other car manufacturers will face among these new regulations," said Lucas Barcelo, founder at Thrivin Life, an automation and analytics marketing company.
"GM has a good diversified supply chain, their domestic production will allow them to mitigate tariff impact, they have remained relatively financially strong over the years, and now we'll get to see how they adapt and innovate among big changes &#8211; this is their chance to shine," Barcelo added.
Used car specialists: Tariffs raise costs, making consumers less likely to purchase a new vehicle.
"This makes stocks that generate profits from the used vehicle market and through service and parts more likely to benefit on a relative basis," Sponheimer said. "We have long appreciated the dealer model that AutoNation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AN#NYSE">AN</a>) and Penske (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PAG#NYSE">PAG</a>) employ, driving over half of gross profits from parts and service."
Additionally, CarMax (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMX#NYSE">KMX</a>) will likely experience an inflection in the addressable market for late-model used vehicles starting in 2H, Sponheimer added. "With more consumers looking to purchase used vehicles, the company should benefit from volatility in the new market." 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Takeaway On Tariffs And Auto Stocks</h2>
When kicking tires on auto stocks, extend that research into auto aftermarket companies, which tend to get overlooked by investors.
"The US new vehicle market is in the range of 15-17 million units in a typical year, and the used market is 40 million in annual sales, and the total vehicle population in the United States is over 290 million vehicles," Sponheimer said.
He likes companies that service the larger, less cyclical total vehicle population, where the average vehicle age is nearing 13 years old.
"These vehicles require service, particularly as complexity has skyrocketed," Sponheimer noted. "So this automotive aftermarket produces outstanding business models with outstanding cash flow characteristics."
Additionally, the aftermarket tends to be an area where inflationary pressure can be passed along. "This is typically a fertile fishing ground for auto stocks," he added.

Recently, President Donald Trump transformed the White House to showcase Tesla vehicles in solidarity with&nbsp;his senior advisor and de facto head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Musk and his company. Trump also&nbsp;purchased a Tesla Model S Plaid.
Musk has acknowledged the challenges of running his business while working with DOGE amid a massive decline in Tesla&#8217;s stock price.&nbsp;
Tesla has faced protests against the company in the U.S. and Europe, with demonstrators criticizing Musk&#8217;s political activities.&nbsp;
According to <a target="_blank" href="https://www.statista.com/outlook/mmo/electric-vehicles/united-states" rel="noreferrer noopener">Statista</a>, the EV market in the U.S. could generate revenue of $104.7 billion in 2025 <a target="_blank" href="https://www.statista.com/outlook/mmo/electric-vehicles/united-states" rel="noreferrer noopener">and grow at an annual</a> rate (CAGR 2025-2029) of 10.53%, resulting in a projected market volume of $156.3 billion by 2029.

Tesla Loses Ground in US EV Market While Rivals Accelerate Ahead in January: Report

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) Chair Robyn Denholm has sold approximately $33.7 million worth of the electric vehicle maker&#8217;s stock, according to a filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission on Monday. This sale is part of a previously adopted trading plan.
What Happened: Denholm has been steadily offloading Tesla shares over recent months. In early February, she sold 112,390 shares worth about $43.2 million, alongside CFO Vaibhav Taneja and board member Kimbal Musk, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43557967/elon-musks-brother-kimbal-musk-and-other-tesla-execs-sell-over-73-million-in-stock">who also offloaded significant holdings</a>. 
This trend among Tesla insiders comes as the company navigates macroeconomic uncertainties and intensifying competition in the EV market.

Why It Matters: Tesla shares declined 2.84% on Monday, weighed down by broader market concerns following President Donald Trump's announcement of new tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico, and China. The 25% tariffs on Canadian and Mexican imports and 20% tariffs on Chinese goods have sparked fears of rising costs and inflationary pressure. 
Meanwhile, Tesla&#8217;s leading competitor, BYD Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), reported robust sales growth in February, more than doubling its new energy passenger vehicle deliveries to 318,233 units. The Chinese EV maker, which briefly overtook Tesla as the world's top battery electric vehicle (BEV) seller in late 2023, remains a formidable challenger, particularly with its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44072164/tesla-rival-byd-more-than-doubles-passenger-vehicle-sales-in-february-thriples-production">dominance in plug-in hybrids</a>.

Tesla Chair Robyn Denholm Sells Over $30 Million Worth Of Stock As Automaker Grapples With Macroeconomic Uncertainties, Increased Competitive Heat

Chinese EV giant&nbsp;BYD Co (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) sold 318,233 new energy passenger vehicles in February, marking a jump of 161.4% from last year, thanks to a major jump in plug-in hybrid passenger vehicle sales, the company said on Sunday.
What Happened:&nbsp;Pure passenger EV (battery electric vehicle) sales of the Chinese player rose to 124,902 in February, marking a rise of 127.5% from the corresponding month of last year.
Plug-in hybrid passenger vehicle sales in the period rose 189% to 193,331 units. 
A whopping majority of these vehicles were sold in China itself as the overseas sales volume of BYD&#8217;s new passenger vehicles was only 67,025 units last month.
The company produced 329,211 new energy passenger vehicles in February, nearly triple the number of vehicles made in the corresponding month of last year.
Why It Matters: BYD is the biggest rival to American EV giant Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).

Tesla Rival BYD More Than Doubles Passenger Vehicle Sales In February, Triples Production

Tesla Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is reportedly experiencing a delay in obtaining&nbsp;approval for its autonomous driving&nbsp;technology in China, a setback attributed to the ongoing trade war between the US and China.
What Happened: Chinese authorities might leverage the approval of Tesla&#8217;s self-driving license as a negotiation chip in trade talks with the U.S., a strategic maneuver believed to be the primary reason for the delay, reported the <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/b7867bf0-4a8f-4f60-90c5-f961e5bfea12">Financial Times</a> on Monday.
Despite earlier indications of Tesla receiving a license for extensive training of&nbsp;its Full Self-Driving Beta in&nbsp;the second quarter of 2025, the company has now been informed of an indefinite timeline. Tesla&#8217;s attempts to launch its FSD system in the Chinese market have been ongoing, with last year&#8217;s reports hinting at an impending deal.
In Tesla&#8217;s recent earnings call, CEO Elon Musk voiced his concerns about the FSD prospects in China, pointing to data transfer restrictions between the two nations. "They won't currently allow us to transfer training video outside of China. And then the U.S. government won't let us do training in China. It's a bit of a quandary," stated Musk. As a result, Tesla is instead training its system using publicly available videos of Chinese streets and simulation tools.
Despite these hurdles, Musk remains optimistic, stating that Tesla aims to achieve&nbsp;unsupervised self-driving in China by&nbsp;the end of the next year.

Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s challenges in China are not new. In 2022, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43705074/tesla-cars-were-barred-for-two-months-from-an-entire-chinese-district-as-beijing-considers-them-us-spies">Chinese government began barring Tesla</a> cars from certain areas over national security concerns. The ban was extended to the Beidaihe district for two months during the Communist Party&#8217;s annual summer retreat. It also faced a ban near military complexes during President Xi Jinping's visit to Chengdu.
Meanwhile, the landscape for autonomous cars in China has been heating up, with Tesla rivals BYD Co. Ltd.&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) and Huawei&nbsp;making advancements. BYD rolled out its &#8220;God's Eye&#8221; advanced driver assistance system across all its models, including the budget-friendly Seagull hatchback, starting at around $9,600.
Moreover, Ross Gerber, CEO of&nbsp;Gerber Kawasaki Wealth and Investment Management highlighted that <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43615191/byds-gods-eye-and-huaweis-autonomous-driving-progress-spark-concerns-for-tesla-ross-gerber-points-out-all-use-lidar">all these competitors "use LIDAR" technology</a>, compared to Tesla's camera-only system. 
Despite these hurdles, Tesla has continued its operations in China. The company announced on Monday that it had started production of its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43772576/tesla-to-start-delivering-shanghai-made-refreshed-model-ys-next-week">refreshed Model Y at its Shanghai gigafactory</a>, with deliveries expected to start soon. The ongoing trade tensions and the delay in FSD approval highlight the complexities Tesla faces in the Chinese market.
Tesla stock dropped more than 16% in a month to close at $355.84 on Friday.

Tesla's Self-Driving Ambitions In China At Risk As US-China Trade War Heats Up: 'It's A Bit Of A Quandary,' Says Elon Musk

Chinese EV giant and Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) rival, BYD Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) has outlined plans to commence &#8220;demonstration use&#8221; of all-solid-state batteries by 2027, with a broader adoption anticipated post-2030.
What Happened: As per a report by&nbsp;<a href="https://cnevpost.com/2025/02/15/byd-demonstration-use-all-solid-state-batteries-2027/">CnEVPost</a>, Sun Huajun, the Chief Technology Officer of BYD&#8217;s battery business, revealed the timeline at the China All-Solid-State Battery Innovation and Development Summit Forum. He also mentioned that the industry is making similar strides.
BYD, the world&#8217;s largest new energy vehicle (NEV) manufacturer and the second-largest producer of power batteries, has been working on all-solid-state batteries since 2013. By 2024, the company had begun assessing the feasibility of industrializing these batteries, with trial production already underway for solid-state battery cells featuring single-cell capacities of 20 Ah and 60 Ah.
Sun stated that BYD&#8217;s choice of materials for solid-state batteries is also based on sulfide electrolytes, primarily due to cost and process stability considerations.
Sun stated that cost wouldn&#8217;t pose a long-term issue for solid-state batteries. He attributed the current high cost of sulfide electrolytes used in BYD&#8217;s solid-state batteries to their low volume.&nbsp;&#8220;It doesn&#8217;t really make a&nbsp;lot of sense to talk&nbsp;about cost in the absence&nbsp;of volume,&#8221; he said. Sun anticipates that as the adoption of solid-state ternary batteries grows, their cost will become comparable to that of liquid ternary batteries.
Meanwhile, Lian Yubo, BYD's Chief Scientist and Dean of the Automotive Engineering Research Institute clarified, "Solid-state batteries will be mainly used in high-end models, empowering each other with lithium iron phosphate batteries, and used in vehicles of different levels."

Why It Matters: All-solid-state batteries are considered the future of electric vehicles (EVs) due to their potential for higher energy density, faster charging, and improved safety compared to current lithium-ion batteries. BYD&#8217;s timeline for the demonstration and subsequent mass adoption of these batteries aligns with the industry&#8217;s progress.
The company&#8217;s ongoing efforts since 2013 to develop and industrialize all-solid-state batteries indicate its commitment to innovation and leadership in the EV market. Furthermore, Sun&#8217;s comments about the cost of solid-state batteries provide a positive outlook for their future affordability.
However, experts indicate that mass-producing solid-state batteries can be a significant challenge. "Part of the timeline issue is that you can&#8217;t use the same manufacturing plants and processes for SSBs,&#8221; explained Liz Najman, the Director of market insights at battery health and data start-up&nbsp;Recurrent. "You need to build everything new, which requires money and time,&#8221; he added.

Tesla Rival BYD Sets 2027 Target For Mass Production Of Solid-State Batteries: 'Will Be Mainly Used In High-End Models'

Editor&#8217;s Note: This article has been updated to include the latest information on Xi Jinping&#8217;s meeting with technology leaders and associated market fluctuations.
Chinese President Xi Jinping held a rare high-level symposium with the country&#8217;s leading entrepreneurs on Monday, including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABA#NYSE">BABA</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BABAF#OTC">BABAF</a>)&nbsp; founder Jack Ma, marking Ma&#8217;s most significant public engagement with top leadership since <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/20/11/18186034/alibabas-stock-falls-as-ant-group-ipo-is-suspended-in-china">Beijing&#8217;s 2020 tech crackdown</a>.
What Happened: The gathering, which included Xiaomi CEO Lei Jun, Huawei founder Ren Zhengfei, and electric vehicle maker BYD&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) Wang Chuanfu, comes as Chinese tech stocks reach their highest levels since February 2022, <a href="https://www.scmp.com/economy/china-economy/article/3298944/xi-hosts-symposium-chinas-top-entrepreneurs">reported</a> South China Morning Post.&nbsp;
Alibaba&#8217;s Hong Kong shares surged over 4% in early trading Monday before plunging at HKD 119.60 ($15.37), down 3.63%.&nbsp;

Why It Matters: Recent developments have provided some optimism. The emergence of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/25/02/43520950/deepseeks-ai-model-drives-surge-in-chinese-tech-stocks-closing-gap-with-us-magnificent-seven">the domestic AI model DeepSeek</a> and reports of Alibaba&#8217;s potential collaboration with Apple Inc. to bring AI features to iPhones in China by mid-2025 have fueled market enthusiasm.&nbsp;
The China Enterprises Index jumped 4.1% last Friday, with Alibaba&#8217;s Hong Kong shares gaining over 50% in the past month.
However, challenges loom as U.S.-China tensions escalate. Following Trump&#8217;s recent 10% tariff implementation on Chinese products, Beijing retaliated with similar measures and increased export controls on critical minerals.

Xi Jinping Meets Tech Giants As Chinese Markets Rally On Private Sector Support (UPDATED)

Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) has seen a notable decrease in its worldwide market share for January, according to a recent report by UBS, 
What Happened: UBS analyst Patrick Hummel revealed that Elon Musk-led EV giant&#8217;s sales in Europe fell by 51% year-over-year, tagging it the region&#8217;s &#8220;biggest loser&#8221;. The EV giant also witnessed a 15% drop in retail sales in China, while local brands continued to grow, <a href="https://www.streetinsider.com/Analyst+Comments/UBS%3A+January%3A+Very+poor+month+for+Tesla/24347540.html">reported</a> Investing.com on Friday.
Despite the global demand for EVs remaining strong, UBS analysts labeled January a &#8220;very poor month for Tesla.&#8221; The report also emphasized the growing competition in the EV market, as European EV sales saw a 33% year-over-year increase.
Chinese new energy vehicle (NEV) brands, including Xpeng (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>), have been steadily increasing their market share. Xpeng, in particular, saw a remarkable 251% year-over-year surge in sales, driven by new product launches. In contrast, the U.S. market showed more stability, recording a 25% increase in EV sales compared to the previous year.
The U.S. market showed greater stability, with EV sales rising 25% year-over-year. However, despite sequential declines, overall U.S. auto inventories remained high in terms of days&#8217; supply, according to UBS.
The UBS report did not provide specific details on Tesla's performance in the region but noted that other major automakers had mixed results, with General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) rising 17%, while Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) experienced declines.
UBS also highlighted the ongoing debate surrounding U.S. auto tariffs, which could have implications for global car manufacturers. The bank warned that a potential U.S. tariff on European vehicles could have a substantial impact on German automakers.

Why It Matters: Tesla&#8217;s market share decline comes amid increasing competition and challenges in key markets. In China, Tesla has been facing hurdles for years, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43705074/tesla-cars-were-barred-for-two-months-from-an-entire-chinese-district-as-beijing-considers-them-us-spies">with the Chinese government even banning Tesla cars</a> from certain areas over national security concerns. Furthermore, BYD&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) &#8216;God&#8217;s Eye&#8217; and Huawei&#8217;s advances in autonomous driving heighten concerns for Tesla.
Meanwhile, Tesla&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43724986/uber-ceo-looks-forward-to-tesla-partnership-for-robotaxis-no-one-wants-to-compete-against-tesla-or-elon">potential for partnerships</a> remains strong. Uber Technologies (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) CEO Dara Khosrowshahi expressed optimism about a possible partnership with Tesla for deploying autonomous vehicles on Uber's platform.
These developments underline the dynamic and competitive landscape of the global EV market, where Tesla continues to play a significant role despite recent setbacks.
