A South Korean court has approved the detainment of President Yoon Suk Yeol over his imposition of martial law earlier in the month.
What Happened: On Tuesday (local time), the Seoul Western District Court issued a warrant against Yoon on charges of masterminding a failed martial law declaration, orchestrating an insurrection, and abusing power, according to <a href="https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/nation/2024/12/356_389449.html">The Korea Times</a> report. The Corruption Investigation Office applied for the warrant after Yoon ignored three requests for an appearance from the anti-corruption agency for questioning.
The court warrant grants the CIO 48 hours to detain Yoon for questioning and seek an arrest warrant. However, the Presidential Security Service has blocked investigators from accessing both the presidential office compound and Yoon&#8217;s official residence, citing concerns over military security.
Although Yoon has presidential immunity from criminal prosecution, this protection does not extend to charges of insurrection or treason. Yoon&#8217;s defense team contends that the CIO does not have the legal authority to investigate insurrection, a charge that, under the current system, falls within the investigative jurisdiction of the police.
Yoon was suspended from his duties after the opposition-controlled National Assembly voted to impeach him on December 14 for imposing martial law, which was overturned by a parliamentary vote just six hours later. The Constitutional Court has initiated proceedings to decide whether to remove the incumbent from office or reinstate him, with a ruling expected within 180 days beginning Dec. 14.

Why It Matters: The impeachment and potential arrest of President Yoon Suk Yeol is the culmination of a series of events that started with his controversial&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42292488/south-korean-etfs-slide-on-presidents-emergency-martial-law-declaration-protect-the-constitutional-democratic-order">declaration of martial law</a>&nbsp;on Dec. 3. This move, which Yoon justified as a measure against anti-state activities, led to a significant drop in South Korean ETFs and widespread protests across the country.
In mid-December, South Korean lawmakers, including several members of Yoon&#8217;s own People Power Party (PPP), <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42497084/south-korean-lawmakers-impeach-yoon-over-martial-law-attempt">voted to impeach him</a> over his martial law attempt. The Constitutional Court now has 180 days to ratify the impeachment, which could result in Yoon&#8217;s removal from office.
The Korea Composite Stock Price Index was seen trading lower by 0.22% at 2,399.49 at the time of writing. Shares of major South Korean companies like Samsung Electronics Co. Ltd (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) and Hyundai Motor Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) were in the red. Korean memory giant SK Hynix Inc.

South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol Faces Arrest Over Martial Law Declaration

Hyundai Motor America (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) on Monday said that the company&#8217;s existing EV owners will get free adapters to charge on Tesla Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) supercharger network in the first quarter of 2025.
What Happened: The adapters will allow Hyundai EV owners to charge their vehicles at more than 20,000 Tesla superchargers in the U.S., the company said. Adapters will also be available to purchase at authorized dealers, it added.
Owners of the model year 2024 and earlier KONA electric, Ioniq, Ioniq 5, and Ioniq 6 as well as model year 2025 Ioniq 6, Ioniq 5N, and Kona electric will be eligible to get free adapters.
These vehicles have a Combined Charging System (CCS) charge port, necessitating the use of an adapter to charge on Tesla's supercharger network equipped with North American Charging Standard (NACS.)
Why It Matters: Hyundai USA&#8217;s model year 2025 Ioniq 5 comes with a NACS port, meaning it would not need an adapter to charge on Tesla&#8217;s supercharger network. 
In Oct. 2023, Tesla CEO Elon Musk <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35347614/elon-musk-predicts-inevitable-adoption-of-this-tesla-tech-by-all-major-automakers-to-the-well-organi">expressed his conviction</a> that the widespread adoption of Tesla's North American charging standard (NACS) by&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34338382/honda-joins-ford-gm-volvo-in-adopting-teslas-ev-charging-standard" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">all major automakers</a>&nbsp;is "inevitable."
Several automakers have signed up to adopt Tesla&#8217;s charging standard including Ford, General Motors, and Rivian Automotive. 
According to Tesla, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/12/42505310/tesla-prepares-for-holiday-rush-tapping-into-global-supercharger-demand-to-drive-revenue-growth">its superchargers make up three of four fast chargers</a> in North America.

What Happened: <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/south-korean-president-impeached-in-2024?tid=1733326929469">Data</a> from the prediction market shows a 37% probability of Yoon being impeached before the end of 2024.
Another Polymarket question <a href="https://polymarket.com/event/yoon-out-as-president-of-south-korea-in-2024?tid=1733326929195">gives</a> a 29% chance of Yoon being removed from office, underscoring heightened political instability in the country.
This uncertainty has already rippled through <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42306717/south-korean-markets-plunge-amid-political-turmoil-as-president-yoons-martial-law-u-turn-sparks-uncertainty-samsung-sk-hynix-and-hyundai-stocks-tumble">South Korea's financial markets</a>.
Key technology and industrial stocks have taken a hit, with Samsung Electronics (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) down 1.12%, NVIDIA (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) supplier SK Hynix (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXSCF#OTC">HXSCF</a>) slipping 0.061%, and Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) falling 0.70%. 
The turmoil has also affected U.S.-listed South Korean equities, with Posco Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) dropping 4.36% in regular trading before seeing a slight recovery after hours. 
South Korean ETFs in the U.S., including the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWY#NYSE">EWY</a>) and Franklin FTSE South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLKR#NYSE">FLKR</a>), also saw mixed performances, signaling broader market apprehension.
The situation has also impacted the South Korean won, which weakened by 0.21% against the U.S. dollar, trading at 1,416.65. 
Analysts noted that South Korea&#8217;s crucial role in global supply chains, particularly in semiconductors and automotive production, amplifies the stakes of this political drama.

Why It Matters: The cryptocurrency market, too, felt the shockwaves.
Major coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum plunged on Upbit, South Korea&#8217;s largest crypto exchange, trading at a steep discount compared to international markets. 
Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) dropped as low as $71,800 on Upbit compared to $95,500 on Coinbase, while Ethereum (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/eth/usd">ETH</a>) fell to $2,700 on Upbit before recovering. 
The Korea Premium Index, which tracks price differences between South Korean and global exchanges, dipped to -14.67 during the chaos, signaling significant retail selling pressure.
However, the situation stabilized after President Yoon reversed his martial law decision following parliamentary pushback, with Bitcoin and Ethereum rebounding to align more closely with global prices. 
Analysts noted this episode's divergence from the traditional "Kimchi Premium," where South Korean crypto prices often trade at a significant premium.
Historical patterns add further context to the political stakes. 
South Korea has a tumultuous history of leadership changes, with several former presidents either overthrown, impeached, or imprisoned. 
Yoon's presidency, marked by controversy and challenges, now faces increasing scrutiny and the potential for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/12/42307586/bitcoin-dumped-and-recovered-in-south-korea-amid-political-turmoil-an-arbitrage-opportunity-that-wasnt">a similar fate</a>.

South Korea's President To Be Impeached In 2024? Polymarket Traders Are Unsure

South Korean markets traded sharply lower on Wednesday following a dramatic political upheaval that saw President Yoon Suk Yeol briefly impose and then quickly withdraw martial law <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/24/12/42301885/south-korea-etfs-won-pare-losses-as-yoon-makes-u-turn-on-martial-law-declaration">after facing parliamentary opposition</a>.
What Happened: The benchmark Kospi index fell 1.15% to 2,471.27, while the tech-heavy Kosdaq 100 dropped 2.64% as of 9:49 am local time, according to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">data from Benzinga Pro</a>. 
The political uncertainty particularly affected major technology and industrial stocks, with Samsung Electronics Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SSNLF#OTC">SSNLF</a>) declining 1.12%.
NVIDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) supplier SK Hynix (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HXSCF#OTC">HXSCF</a>) saw its shares drop 0.061%. Other industrial heavyweights also suffered, with Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) falling 0.70% and U.S.-listed Posco Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PKX#NYSE">PKX</a>) declining 4.36% to $47.77 on Tuesday&#8217;s regular session. Still, the stock recovered marginally in after-hours trading.
U.S.-based funds tracking South Korean equities showed signs of recovery in after-hours trading, with the iShares MSCI South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/EWY#NYSE">EWY</a>) rebounding 0.25% after earlier losses exceeding 6%. The Franklin FTSE South Korea ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FLKR#NYSE">FLKR</a>) gained 0.53% after hours.
The political turbulence also impacted currency markets, with the South Korean won weakening 0.21% against the U.S. dollar to 1,416.65. 
The market reaction highlights South Korea&#8217;s crucial role in global supply chains, particularly in semiconductor manufacturing and automotive production, where many companies serve as essential suppliers to major U.S. firms.

Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) and Kia Corp are together recalling over 208,000 electrified vehicles in the U.S. citing concerns about a loss of driving power, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said on Friday.
What Happened: The recall population includes 145,235 Hyundai vehicles and 62,872 vehicles from its sister company Kia. 
The integrated charging control unit in the vehicles may become damaged and stop charging the battery, resulting in a loss of drive power, the U.S. auto safety regulator said. A loss of drive power may increase the risk of a crash, it added. 
The vehicles included in the recall are certain IONIQ 5, IONIQ 6, Genesis GV60, Genesis GV70 Electrified, Genesis G80 Electrified, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/04/38246262/need-a-new-ev-deal-kia-offers-dealers-cash-to-make-room-for-2024-models">and Kia EV6</a>. 
Why It Matters: As for a solution, the company&#8217;s dealers will inspect and replace the charging unit and its fuse if necessary, NHTSA said. 
The company is not aware of any crashes, injuries, fatalities, or fires due to the issue in the U.S.
Earlier this month, Hyundai promoted  Jose Munoz, its U.S. chief and global COO, to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42004380/hyundai-gears-up-for-trumps-return-to-white-house-elevates-us-chief-jose-munoz-to-co-ceo-appoints-former-us-diplomat-to-manage-external-affairs"> the position of co-CEO </a>as part of its strategic preparation for potential challenges that could arise under a second Trump administration.
A second Trump presidency is expected to have a significant impact on the automotive industry, and on EVs in particular with the president-elect promising to impose higher tariffs on imports into the U.S. and vowing to remove incentives for the manufacturing of EVs. 
However, Munoz said in an interview with CNBC on Thursday that the company continues to be optimistic about the future of electric vehicles, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42132485/hyundais-incoming-ceo-is-steadfast-on-evs-says-tesla-ceo-elon-musks-proximity-to-trump-will-be-good-for-industry">irrespective of incentives</a>.

Hyundai, Kia Recall Over 208,000 Electrified Vehicles In US: Here's More

South Korean automaker Hyundai Motor Co&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) incoming CEO Jose Munoz is optimistic about the future of electric vehicles despite fears of EV tariffs and incentives getting dropped or reduced under the upcoming Donald Trump presidency.
What Happened: Hyundai decided to make a big investment in America during the previous Trump administration before the introduction of the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) which provides incentives for the manufacturing of electric vehicles in the U.S., Munoz said in an <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1E3zF6S2JaQ">interview </a>with CNBC. 
&#8220;The fact that Elon Musk is so close to Trump is probably good for electric vehicles, not bad. We are not planning our business based on incentives. We want to produce really great vehicles with great features,&#8221; he said. Munoz&#8217;s appointment as co-CEO of Hyundai will be <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/24/11/42004380/hyundai-gears-up-for-trumps-return-to-white-house-elevates-us-chief-jose-munoz-to-co-ceo-appoints-former-us-diplomat-to-manage-external-affairs">effective from January. </a>
Why It Matters: In November 2023, Hyundai announced that it would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/11/35768916/hyundai-announces-25-wage-hike-for-alabama-and-georgia-production-team-amid-labour-unrest">invest $12.6 billion in EV and battery manufacturing facilities in Georgia</a>, making it its largest investment outside South Korea. The first electric vehicle rolled off the assembly line in Georgia in October. 
Earlier this week, the company unveiled its Ioniq 9 three-row SUV which will roll out in the U.S. early next year. The Ioniq 9 will be up against other 3-row SUVs from rival automakers including Lucid Motors and General Motors and will be manufactured in Georgia. 
Hyundai now aims to have a lineup of 23 EV models by 2030.
Meanwhile, Wedbush analyst Dan Ives said Trump&#8217;s plan to get rid of consumer tax credits for EVs is actually not positive for Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>). Eliminating the EV tax credit could pose a major challenge to the United States&#8217; EV transition. However, Musk, a prominent supporter of Trump, has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41988194/trump-plans-to-erase-ev-tax-credit-analyst-says-its-net-bullish-calls-sell-off-wrong-knee-jerk-reaction">reportedly expressed his support </a>to Trump's team for ending the EV tax credit.

Tesla CEO Elon Musk's Proximity To Trump Will Benefit EV Industry, Says Incoming Hyundai CEO As He Shrugs Off Potential Tariff Threats

Hyundai Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) has promoted Jose Munoz, its U.S. chief and global COO, to the position of co-CEO. This marks a historic moment as Munoz becomes the first foreign national to achieve such a rank within a major South Korean conglomerate. The decision is part of Hyundai&#8217;s strategic preparation for potential challenges that could arise under a second Trump administration.
What Happened: Munoz has played a crucial role in driving record sales for Hyundai in North America. He will now join three other co-CEOs, including Euisun Chung, the executive chair and grandson of Hyundai&#8217;s founder. Despite his elevation, Munoz will remain subordinate to Chung and Chang Jae-hoon, who is set to become group vice chair overseeing the automotive division.

The leadership changes are aimed at enhancing Hyundai&#8217;s global competitiveness and preparing for uncertainties in the business landscape. Additionally, the automaker has appointed Sung Kim, a former U.S. diplomat, to manage global external affairs. Kim was a former U.S. diplomat and was part of a team assisting Donald Trump during his first term at a summit with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.
Why It Matters: The appointment of Munoz comes at a time when the potential return of Trump to the U.S. presidency <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/11/41755274/trump-win-could-hinder-tech-ev-sector-growth-slow-the-pace-of-ai-revolution-analyst">could significantly impact</a> the automotive industry. According to a group of Wedbush analysts, a Trump win could hinder growth in the technology and electric vehicle sectors, potentially slowing the pace of the AI revolution.

Ahead Of Tesla Robotaxi Event, Alphabet's Waymo Partners With Hyundai For Autonomous Taxi Expansion

In the first phase of this partnership, the companies will integrate Waymo&#39;s sixth-generation fully autonomous technology &ndash; the Waymo Driver &ndash; into Hyundai&#39;s all-electric IONIQ 5 SUV, which will be added to the Waymo One fleet over time.

Hyundai Motor, Waymo Enter Multi-year Strategic Partnership

While Ford Motor (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>) remains focused on hybrids in the near-term, General Motors (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gm#NYSE">GM</a>) has been significantly&nbsp;increasing its EV portfolio, and Hyundai Motor Company (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hymtf#OTC">HYMTF</a>) is maintaining its EV sales momentum as it works on solidifying its EV positioning.
On Wednesday, Ford announced that it&nbsp;sold a total of 504,039 vehicles during the third quarter, which marks a YoY improvement of 0.7%. Year-to-date, Ford experienced a sales rise of 2.7% as it sold 1,548,172 vehicles.Hybrids led the way as Ford sold 48,101 of them, with sales growing as much as 38%. &nbsp;Ford revealed its struggling EV business also grew 12.2% to 23,509 sold vehicles but EV sales growth slowed, causing Ford to lose its EV lead to its Detroit peer, General Motors. During the first nine months of the year, Ford sold 67,689 EVs, up 45% on an annual&nbsp;basis. This places Ford just behind General Motors who sold 70,450 EVs through September. On Tuesday, GM reported that this figure that includes a rise of about 60% during the third quarter. But both Ford and General Motors continue to trail Hyundai Motor Company, who remains a distant second to the EV king, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>).
Meanwhile, Tesla revealed on Tuesday its third quarter deliveries grew 6.4%&nbsp;YoY. &nbsp;Out of 462,890 units that Tesla delivered, Model 3 and Model Y making up 439,975 of those deliveries. During the quarter, Tesla also revealed it produced 469,796 vehicles, with 443,668&nbsp;of them being also Model 3 and Model Y.&nbsp;
At its recent CEO Investor Day, Hyundai announced its plans for boosting profitability by diversifying its hybrid and EV lineups. Hyundai Motor Company&nbsp;and Kia Corporation also just announced a joint venture to enhance competitiveness in future EV batteries by launching a new manufacturing process to develop lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery cathode material. In addition, Hyundai has an ongoing partnership with the innovative clean-energy pickup accessory manufacturer, Worksport Ltd (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wksp#NASDAQ">WKSP</a>) for the solar-powered SOLIS tonneau cover whose alpha launch was released this month, along with its off-grid power partner, COR portable battery generator. Moreover, Worksport just announced it expanded its sales to Federal Government Agencies, after supplying its flagship made-in-USA&nbsp;AL3 Tonneau Covers for regular fleet purchases. Therefore, Hyundai already secured access to cutting edge solutions Worksport has to offer, like the SOLIS and COR power duo. Worksport is only an example of game-changing solutions that will undoubtedly support traditional automakers like Hyundai, Ford and GM to gear up for the EV era and possibly, catch up to Tesla sometime in the future.

Ford, GM And Hyundai Are Adapting Differently To The Evolving EV Dynamics

Ford Motor (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>) is trying to revitalize the sagging EV demand by addressing range anxiety or more precisely, by providing&nbsp;easier&nbsp;access to charging. Specifically, Ford offered free chargers by the end of the year in hopes to boost EV sales and leases.
<h3>Ford&rsquo;s Attempt To Revive EV Demand</h3>
As of October 1st, all those who buy or lease a Ford Mustang Mach-E, F-150 Lightning pickup truck or E-Transit Cargo van&nbsp;receive the benefit of a free charger as well as of its installation. After its EV roadtrips across Europe and western U.S., Ford came to a realization that by focusing on the charging infrastructure on the road, automakers neglected that homes are the most reliable and consistent charging station for EV owners.&nbsp;
Additional charging help is also on the way.
This month, Worksport Ltd (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wksp#NASDAQ">WKSP</a>), a well-established innovator and manufacturer of &ldquo;made-in-the-USA&rdquo; pickup accessories and off-grid power solutions, initiated the Alpha launch of its clean power duo, the solar-powered tonneau cover SOLIS and COR mobile battery power generator. Also in September, Worksport announced it conducted successful lab test results of its COR portable energy system as a range extender for Tesla EVs, including the Model 3 and the Cybertruck.&nbsp;&nbsp;
Moreover, Worksport also just revealed it is&nbsp;progressing towards&nbsp;gaining the&nbsp;ISO 9000&nbsp;certification at its state-of-the-art West Seneca, NY factory anticipated&nbsp;by early-mid 2025.
<h3>Worksport&rsquo;s ISO 9000 Certification Update</h3>
With the ISO 9000 certification, Worksport would pave the way for OEM relationships, which means the possibility of indirect and direct sales to global car makers that include EV pioneers like Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rivn#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>), as well as traditional automakers like Ford, General Motors (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gm#NYSE">GM</a>), Hyundai Motor Company (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hymtf#OTC">HYMTF</a>), Honda Motor Company (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hmc#NYSE">HMC</a>), Stellantis N.V. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stla#NYSE">STLA</a>), Nissan Motor Co Ltd (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nsany#OTC">NSANY</a>), and Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tm#NYSE">TM</a>). While there are no guarantees, the ISO 9000 certification is a prerequisite for becoming a vendor and supply partner of the industry&rsquo;s greatest names like Toyota, GM, Ford, Toyota and others. For Worksport, this would be a major strategic milestone in terms of both quality and operational excellence. Considering that only less than 7% of the tonneau cover industry&nbsp;holds this&nbsp;certification, it would position Worksport as a leading manufacturer, especially with its patented solar tonneau covers.&nbsp;
No matter what, the EV revolution is happening.
While these initiatives and novelties won&rsquo;t fix the EV slowdown nor Ford&rsquo;s $5 billion loss from its unprofitable EV unit that is expected this year, it does show that despite challenges, the EV evolution continues.&nbsp;

Automakers Are Doing Their Best To Combat The EV Slowdown

The U.S. Commerce Department proposed Monday an outright block on the import and sale of Chinese-made vehicles that contain key communications and automated driving systems due <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/china">to national security concerns.</a>
This sweeping proposal, reported by Reuters, would have the effect of shutting out nearly all Chinese cars from the U.S. market, intensifying the ongoing economic standoff between the two global superpowers.
The proposed regulation would not only target vehicles but also encompass the software and hardware integral to modern connected cars. 
This means that any vehicle equipped with systems that facilitate internet connectivity or data sharing — which are now ubiquitous in newer models — could be banned if these technologies are sourced from China or any other nation deemed a foreign adversary, including Russia.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Heightened Security Concerns</h3>
The Biden administration has expressed growing concerns over the potential for data collected by Chinese automakers and tech companies to be used for espionage or to undermine U.S. infrastructure. 
With many modern cars linked to the internet, allowing them to communicate with external systems for navigation, safety features, and data storage, officials worry that Chinese companies could exploit these connections to gather sensitive information or even manipulate vehicle operations remotely.
For instance, an extreme scenario, as warned by government officials, could see adversaries remotely controlling vehicles or causing accidents at scale.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Impact On The Auto Industry, Stock Reactions</h3>
This new ban, if enacted, could be a game changer for the automotive industry. Chinese automakers such as BYD, Nio and Xpeng, which have been eyeing the U.S. market, would face significant roadblocks.
Even American and other international automakers that source components from Chinese suppliers could be impacted, especially when it comes to hardware and software development.
The Alliance for Automotive Innovation – a trade group representing major automakers including General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Toyota Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTCPK: VWAGY), and Hyundai Motor Co., Ltd (OTCPK: HYMTF) – has expressed caution about the proposed bans, according to Reuters. 
Automakers noted that connected vehicle components are sourced globally, including from China, and that reconfiguring supply chains to avoid Chinese software and hardware could prove challenging.
While the group has not yet provided a detailed breakdown of how extensively Chinese-made parts are used in U.S. vehicles, it&#8217;s clear the proposed bans would require significant adjustments for automakers operating in the U.S. market.
Shares of General Motors fell over 3% during Monday premarket trading, while Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) rose 1.3%. 
Shares of major Chinese automakers had mixed reactions. NIO Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NIO#NYSE">NIO</a>) fell over 2%, while XPeng Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/XPEV#NYSE">XPEV</a>) dropped 0.8%. In contrast, Li Auto Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LI#NASDAQ">LI</a>) managed to rise by 1%, bucking the downward trend.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Broadening Trade War</h3>
This move is part of a broader campaign by the U.S. government to curb China&#8217;s influence in the American economy. Just last week, the Biden administration imposed hefty tariffs on Chinese imports, including a 100% duty on electric vehicles and key minerals used in EV batteries.
These combined measures could reshape the competitive landscape in the U.S. auto market, particularly in the growing electric vehicle sector.
In addition, the proposal could hamper Chinese companies&#8217; ability to test self-driving or autonomous cars on U.S. soil, limiting their participation in an industry expected to revolutionize transportation over the coming decades.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Timeline For Ban</h3>
The proposed rules would phase in over the next several years. Software restrictions would apply to vehicles from the 2027 model year onward, while hardware bans would take effect for 2030 models, starting as early as January 2029, Reuters said. 
This phased approach is designed to allow automakers time to adapt their supply chains and eliminate Chinese components from their vehicles. Given the global nature of the automotive supply chain, transitioning away from Chinese-made components could be a costly and complex process.

Chinese Vehicle Tech Faces Biden Administration Ban Over National Security Concerns: China EV Stocks Fall

R1T, the first electric pickup to hit the road, was the showpiece that launched Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rivn#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>). But considering that the&nbsp;R1S SUV&nbsp;became the signature vehicle Rivian got known for, launching the world&rsquo;s first electric pickup wasn&rsquo;t enough to launch Rivian among the EV stars. Even Ford Motor (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>) couldn&rsquo;t repeat its F-150 best-selling success on the EV front. Not to mention the EV king, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), who&nbsp;successfully launched the Cybertruck after quite a bit of delays, only to face a new set of challenges. Even Tesla ended up short on the electric pickup front, with Cybertruck sales being pale compared to Model Y and Model 3. To sum it up, SUVs won against pickups in the EV race. For now.
Putting it simply, a larger EV means a less efficient EV. To move around, a heavier vehicle needs more energy and therefore, huge batteries. Rivian somewhat solved this equation with R1T&nbsp;that has the range option of&nbsp;420 miles, but it requires a huge and expensive battery pack. Stellantis N.V. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stla#NYSE">STLA</a>) is claiming its all-electric Ram 1500 REV pickup will outperform its competitors with range, towing, payload, and charging times.&nbsp;Scheduled to arrive to dealerships early next year, this will be Ram&rsquo;s first electric pickup.&nbsp;2025 1500 REV&nbsp;will come with two battery options, resulting in targeted ranges of&nbsp;350-miles and up to 500 miles.&nbsp;This means Stellantis will leave behind not only Rivian, but also the pickup king, Ford and its 2024 Lightning, whose extended range of 320 miles, and the EV king, Tesla, whose Cybetruck has en estimated driving range of 340 miles. However, it&rsquo;s no secret that Stellantis is also struggling, both in North America and in Europe, with Chinese EV makers setting up shop as they continue to expand their global footprint. But, despite challenges and weak results for the first half of the year, including a profit dive of 48%, Stellantis is not giving up. Earlier this month, it revealed its plans to invest $406 million to retool three Michigan plants for EV production. But also, it is slowing down as a week ago, it decided to pause the production of electric Fiat 500 model for four weeks, with the plant in Turin will undergo a significant transformation, involving an investment of &euro;100 million, being equipped for developing a hybrid version of the model. Therefore, Stellantis is yet to fulfill its electric pickup promise.&nbsp;
<h3>The Good News Is That All Electric Pickups Just Got Some Solar Power</h3>
Meanwhile, Worksport Ltd (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/wksp#NASDAQ">WKSP</a>), an innovative maker of hybrid and clean energy solutions for light trucks and global consumer goods, just initiated the Alpha Launch of its solar-power duo that pickups can greatly benefit from. Its off-grid power on the go duo consists of SOLIS solar-powered tonneau cover and COR mobile battery power generator. Worksport is planning to bring this innovative system to market in three phases, beginning with the Alpha release, followed by the Beta release and ultimately, a full-scale market launch. The initial Alpha release of its cutting-edge nano-grid system has officially been initiated, with Worksport announcing that approximately 100 systems have been set for rigorous testing and public exposure.&nbsp;Worksport already revealed that the SOLIS will be available for major truck brands including Ford, General Motors Company (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gm#NYSE">GM</a>) and the Hyundai Motor Company (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hymtf#OTC">HYMTF</a>). In addition, Worksport revealed earlier this month successful lab test results of the portable COR battery system as a range extender for Tesla, namely its Model 3 and Cybertruck.
Therefore, the above examples show that as technologies improve and economies of scale emerge, electric pickups will be in a much more favorable position in the future.
