With a 25% tariff on imported vehicles and parts set to take effect, buyers are racing to dealerships to lock in prices before they climb.&nbsp;
Some industry experts say it could add thousands of dollars to the cost of a new car, prompting a last-minute shopping spree.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Auto Buyers Rush to Beat the Clock</h2>
A Toyota (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) dealership in Walnut Creek, California told <a href="https://abc7news.com/post/trump-car-tariffs-bay-area-presidents-liberation-day-announcement/16113072/">KKGO-TV</a> selling 70 cars over the weekend, as customers hurried to make a purchase before the tariffs kicked in. The dealership&#8217;s general manager, Irina Ellis, said, &#8220;Now is the time for these consumers to be out here looking for vehicles before any price changes take effect.&#8221;&nbsp;
According to<a href="https://www.marketwatch.com/story/new-car-prices-could-be-15-000-higher-under-trumps-tariffs-and-no-one-wins-wall-street-analyst-says-522addcb?"> Marketwatch</a>, Wedbush Securities analyst Dan Ives estimates new car prices could rise by $5,000 and $15,000. However, the exact amount would depend on the model and brand.
Fears of significant price hikes fuel the urgency. Like many auto industry experts, Ives expects prices on some models to surge. Ives told<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dFvx327UxDc"> Bloomberg</a> while referencing the tariffs, &#8220;It would be a back breaker for the auto industry globally.&#8221;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Trending: It&#8217;s no wonder Jeff Bezos holds over $250 million in art — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">this alternative asset has outpaced the S&amp;P 500 since 1995, delivering an average annual return of 11.4%. Here&#8217;s how everyday investors are getting started.</a>

Used car prices aren&#8217;t safe either—dealers predict they&#8217;ll rise as new car inventories shrink. CarEdge co-founder Ray Shefska <a href="https://caredge.com/guides/car-price-predictions-for-2025?">predicts </a>that tariffs will impact the used car market if they continue for an extended period. If they drive new car prices higher, more buyers will pivot to the used car market. Higher demand for used cars would naturally drive prices higher.
Beyond sticker shock, automakers are bracing for higher production costs, which could impact jobs and supply chains. The manufacturing hubs of Michigan, Ontario and Mexico may see layoffs as companies adjust to the new economic reality.

These tariffs are part of a larger strategy by the Trump administration to implement reciprocal trade policies, particularly targeting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44535998/grant-cardone-says-trump-wants-to-make-canada-the-51st-state-experts-break-down-the-tariffs-impacting-over-100-billion-in-trade">Canada</a> and Mexico. Supporters argue it will boost federal revenue and encourage domestic production, while critics warn it could trigger retaliatory tariffs and slow economic growth.
For those debating whether to buy a car now or wait, market analysts say time is of the essence. Tyson Jominy, vice president of analytics at J.D.

'Liberation Day' Tariffs? Why Some Americans Are Rushing To Buy A Car Before Trump's 25% Auto Duty Hits

A new report highlights the growth of several automotive brands, as Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) saw its market share decline in the U.S.<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/electric-vehicle"> electric vehicle sector</a> in the first quarter.
What Happened: A political push by Tesla CEO Elon Musk has <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/25/02/43447273/tesla-sales-drop-12-in-california-is-elon-musks-support-for-donald-trump-hurting-ev-sales">led to protests </a>at Tesla dealerships and lower sales of the leading electric vehicle company in the United States and around the world.
A new Cox Automotive <a href="https://www.coxautoinc.com/market-insights/q1-2025-ev-sales/">report</a>, shared by <a href="https://www.teslarati.com/best-selling-ev-brands-us-q1-2025/">Teslarati</a>, highlights the top-selling electric vehicle companies and models in the United States for the first quarter.
The report estimates that 296,227 electric vehicles were sold in the United States in the first quarter, up 11.4% year over year. According to the report, new EVs made up around 7.5% of the overall U.S. new car sales in the quarter.
For comparison, the overall U.S. EV market sold 1.3 million new vehicles in 2024, a record. That figure was up 7.3% year over year.

Winners and Losers: Tesla remained the U.S. leader by a wide margin, outselling the following top 10 companies combined. However, the EV leader saw its overall U.S. sales down 8.6% year over year.
Here were the top EV sellers in the first quarter by units sold, according to the report:
<ol>
<li>Tesla: 128,100</li>
<li>Ford: 22,500</li>
<li>Chevrolet: 19,186</li>
<li>BMW: 13,538</li>
<li>Hyundai: 12,843</li>
<li>VW: 9,564</li>
<li>Honda: 9,561</li>
<li>Kia: 8,656</li>
<li>Rivian: 8,553</li>
<li>Cadillac: 7,972</li>
</ol>
Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), which owns Chevrolet, ranked second and third for the quarter. Ford saw 11.5% overall year-over-year growth in the quarter.
Several of General Motors&#8217; brands saw strong growth, including Chevrolet, which had first-quarter sales up 114.2% year over year.
Porsche led the way as a brand with a 249% year-over-year increase in the first quarter, followed by Toyota (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) at +196%, GMC at +183, Subaru at 173% and Volvo at +173%.
Outside of Tesla, other decliners included Lexus (-9%), Mini (-16%), Kia (-24%), Rivian Automotive (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>) (-37%) and Mercedes-Benz (-58%).
These were the top-selling EV models in the U.S. in the quarter:
<ol>
<li>Tesla Model Y: 64,051</li>
<li>Tesla Model 3: 52,520</li>
<li>Ford Mustang Mach-E: 11,607</li>
<li>Chevrolet Equinox EV: 10,329</li>
<li>Honda Prologue: 9,561</li>
<li>Hyundai Ioniq 5: 8,611</li>
<li>VW ID.4: 7,662</li>
<li>Ford F-150 Lightning: 7,187</li>
<li>BMW i4: 7,125</li>
<li>Tesla Cybertruck: 6,406</li>
</ol>
Tesla had three of the top 10 selling models in the quarter with the Model Y and Model 3 significantly ahead of the competition. The Ford F-150 Lightning sold better than the Cybertruck in the quarter though.
What's Next: Tesla continues to be the market leader in the U.S., but its market share has fallen in recent years with increased competition and now brand power concerns.
Tesla's U.S. quarterly sales are down 26% from their peak according to the report with the company's overall U.S. auto market share now around 3%, down from 5% in 2023.
Cox Automotive predicts volatility for electric vehicles sales in the U.S. for the rest of 2025 depending on automotive tariffs and the ending of EV credits.
"The year certainly started strong, but the road ahead will be anything but smooth," Cox Automotive analyst Stephanie Valdez Streaty said.

Based on the GR86 Premium grade, the special edition will feature 18-inch matte-black wheels and other stunning black accents throughout the vehicle.
On the inside, the Yuzu edition features a black interior with yellow accents.

Customers will find black Ultrasuede trimmed sport seats with yellow perforation and yellow stitching on the steering wheel, parking brake handle, and door trim.
Brembo Brakes improve stopping power, and SACHS Dampers provide additional stability while preserving GR86&#8217;s trademark playfulness. Customers can customize their vehicle by adding accessories like a cat-back exhaust with GR logo silver-colored tips and a body kit to the Yuzu edition for even more self-expression.
For the 2026 model year, the GR86 will be available in three grades: GR86, GR86 Premium, and the GR86 Yuzu edition. All grades will offer a choice of a six-speed manual or automatic transmission and be powered by a 2.4-liter, 4-cylinder boxer engine.&nbsp;
The GR86 will arrive at Toyota dealerships in the fall of 2025. In 2026, only 860 Yuzu editions will be assembled for the North American market.
In July 2024, Tesla CEO Elon Musk applauded Audi&#8217;s Auto Union Type 52 sports car, which is also called the Schnellsportwagen, equipped with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40008880/audi-showcases-16-cylinder-engine-sports-car-based-on-90-year-old-concept-tesla-ceo-elon-musk-calls" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">16-cylinder engine</a> and painted Cellulose Silver.
Tesla&#8217;s debut vehicle was the Roadster, a battery-electric sports car. The company is now developing a new version, likely to&nbsp;start production in 2025. Musk said earlier this year that the new car can accelerate from 0 to 60 mph in less than 1 second, thanks to a collaboration between Tesla and SpaceX.

According to JPMorgan&#8217;s Akira Kishimoto, Japanese automakers could face a potential hit of 4.46 trillion yen (about $29.44 billion). Given its resilience and strong fundamentals, Toyota remains JPMorgan&#8217;s top pick.

What's Going On With Toyota Motor Stock Today?

Retail Sales

Toyota Motor North America March 2025 Total Sales 231,335 Vehicles; Toyota Motor North America March 2025 Electrified Vehicle Sales 112,608 Vehicles

Two major Michigan business organizations have warned that President Donald Trump&#8216;s planned 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and parts would severely damage the state&#8217;s auto-dependent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44577203/tom-lee-says-markets-are-deeply-oversold-expects-bitcoin-to-lead-rebound-as-investors-fear-trumps-tariff-impact">economy and harm the working class</a>.
What Happened: The Detroit Regional Chamber and MichAuto urged the administration on Monday in a letter to halt the tariffs set to take effect on Thursday, cautioning they would cause &#8220;significant price increases&#8221; for American consumers and &#8220;profound&#8221; pain in Michigan, where one in five jobs is automotive-related.
&#8220;The tariff policies proposed will increase prices, drive down consumer demand, and therefore, lower the profitability of our companies, directly impacting the hardworking Americans who assemble the iconic vehicles,&#8221; the letter stated. 
The groups noted that Michigan houses over 1,000 automotive suppliers, many being small and medium-sized businesses with fragile balance sheets that depend on predictable supply chains. Price increases would &#8220;disproportionately&#8221; affect working-class and middle-class families, potentially causing consumers to keep older vehicles longer.

Why It Matters: Republican opposition to the tariffs is growing. Sen.

(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), and others, has warned that the tariffs will increase vehicle costs for consumers.

Trump's 25% Tariff On Imported Vehicles Could Shatter Detroit's Auto Economy, Warns Business Leaders: 'It Will Hurt Hardworking Americans'

Auto stocks hit a speed bump after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">President Donald Trump</a> brushed off concerns over higher car prices following his announcement of new 25% tariffs on foreign imports.
Shares of Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), Nissan Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#NYSE">NSANY</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTCPK: VWAGY) and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) slid on investor concerns over the impact on global supply chains and consumer demand.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Tariff Play</h2>
Trump's weekend interview with NBC News only added fuel to the fire, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/auto-stocks-fall-after-trump-says-he-couldnt-care-less-about-higher-prices-21cd7c16">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal. When asked if foreign automakers hiking prices would hurt U.S. consumers, he dismissed the concern outright. "I couldn't care less."
The logic? If foreign cars get more expensive, Americans will buy domestic. That stance sent ripples through the markets, with Asian and European automakers posting sharp declines.
In Japan, Toyota dropped 3.1%, Honda fell 3.1%, and Nissan tumbled 4%. South Korea's Hyundai slipped 3.8%; in Europe, Stellantis lost 2.8%, Volkswagen declined 3.1%, and Mercedes-Benz slid 2.6%. Even Ferrari NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) felt the heat, dropping 1.7% despite plans to hike prices by up to 10% to offset tariffs.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is This A Buying Opportunity?</h2>
Auto stocks have been in reverse all year, and technical indicators don't offer much encouragement. Toyota&#8217;s stock is flashing strong bearish signals, trading below its 5-, 20-, 50- and 200-day moving averages. The same goes for Honda and Stellantis stocks, both caught in a downtrend and facing selling pressure.
Even Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock, often seen as insulated from traditional automaker woes, is down over 30% YTD. But unlike its global peers, Tesla has found some support, sitting slightly above its eight and 20-day moving averages—a rare bullish signal amid the carnage.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Road Ahead</h2>
With tariffs kicking in on April 2, the next few weeks could be bumpy for auto stocks. If global carmakers pass the costs to consumers, demand could take a hit, further pressuring share prices.
However, investors with a long-term view might find bargains in the wreckage, particularly among companies able to navigate price adjustments without losing market share.
For now, auto stocks remain in the danger zone. But contrarians might find value under the hood if prices fall much further.

Auto Stocks Skid After Trump Shrugs Off Higher Prices - Should You Buy The Dip?

Shares of auto-related stocks are trading lower after President Trump said he will introduce new tariffs on auto and auto parts imports.

The newly imposed <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/regulations/25/03/44517885/trump-slaps-25-tariffs-on-autos-what-it-means-for-your-next-car-purchase">25% auto tariff</a> threatens to disrupt the global automotive industry, with analysts warning of sharp price increases and declining sales.
Goldman Sachs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44515578/trumps-25-tariff-set-to-hike-imported-car-prices-up-to-15000-higher-goldman-sachs-warns">estimates that imported </a>vehicle prices could rise by $5,000 to $15,000, while even U.S.-built cars could see cost hikes of $3,000 to $8,000 due to foreign-made parts. Here&#8217;s what analysts have predicted so far:
<ul>
<li>According to JPMorgan's Akira Kishimoto, Japanese automakers could face a potential hit of 4.46 trillion yen (about $29.44 billion), with Nissan Motor Co. Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#OTC">NSANY</a>), Mazda Motor Corp.

Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) remains JPMorgan's top pick, given its resilience and strong fundamentals, while Suzuki Motor (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SZKMY#OTC">SZKMY</a>) and Isuzu Motors (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ISUZY#OTC">ISUZY</a>) are also favored among mid-tier manufacturers.

<li>RBC Capital Markets&#8217; Tom Narayan warns that German automakers like Mercedes-Benz Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>) and BMW Group (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWKY#OTC">BMWKY</a>) are at high risk, though potential retaliatory tariffs from Europe could deter further escalation. Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) may benefit due to its U.S.-based production, while Ferrari NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) is expected to pass costs onto its high-end buyers. </li>
<li>JPMorgan autos analyst Ryan Brinkman has slashed price targets for major U.S. automakers, cutting General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) by 17% to $53 from $64, Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) by 15% to $11 from $13, and Ferrari by 12% to $460 from $525, citing heightened earnings risk. </li>
</ul>
With uncertainty around auto demand and the potential for sales fluctuations, investors remain cautious as the industry assesses the economic impact of these sweeping tariffs.

Japanese Automakers Face $29 Billion Tariff Hit, Nissan, Mazda, Subaru Most At Risk, Says Analyst

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) shares are trading lower on Thursday after President Donald Trump announced plans to introduce tariffs on automobiles <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">and related imports.</a>
What To Know: Trump on Wednesday revealed a 25% tariff on imported cars and key auto parts, according to <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/03/27/auto-stocks-trump-tariffs.html">CNBC</a>.
The tariff on imported vehicles will take effect on April 3, while the tariff on auto parts will begin by May 3. However, auto parts compliant with the USMCA agreement will remain tariff-free until the commerce secretary and U.S. Customs and Border Protection coordinate the logistics of applying tariffs to non-U.S. content.
Shares of Ford, along with other automakers like General Motors Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), are moving lower following this announcement, as these companies rely on imported parts to manufacture their vehicles. The tariffs could raise the cost of those imports, potentially impacting their profit margins.
Deutsche Bank analysts noted that, &#8220;Tesla and Ford appear to be the most shielded given location of vehicle assembly facilities although Ford does face incremental exposure on imported engines.&#8221;
Goldman Sachs analysts estimate that this tariff could increase the price of imported cars by $5,000 to $15,000.

What's Going On With Ford Shares Thursday?

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. He mentioned potential exemptions for certain countries, though specifics were not provided.
Trump&#8217;s tariffs on steel, aluminum, and auto imports <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/25/03/44342459/4-auto-stocks-set-to-benefit-from-trumps-tariffs">hurt foreign-part-dependent automakers</a> but benefit companies with strong domestic production and supply chains. Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), BYD Company Limited (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), and GM are poised to gain, while automakers reliant on cross-border supply chains face higher costs. Used car dealers like AutoNation, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AN#NYSE">AN</a>) and CarMax, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMX#NASDAQ">KMX</a>) may also benefit as new car prices rise.

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.

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.

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.

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.
