Mazda Motor Q4 GAAP EPS $0.12 Down From $0.23 YoY, Sales $8.72B Up From $8.50B YoY

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.

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.

The stock prices of major Japanese automakers, including Toyota Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TOYOF#OTC">TOYOF</a>), Mazda Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), Honda Motor Co., Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HNDAF#OTC">HNDAF</a>), and Suzuki Motor Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SZKMY#OTC">SZKMY</a>), have taken a hit following a safety scandal.
What Happened: The Japanese transport ministry discovered that false data was used to certify certain models, leading to a significant drop in the stock prices of these automakers, <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2024/06/10/shares-of-toyota-mazda-honda-suzuki-fall-after-safety-scandal.html">reported</a> CNBC on Sunday.
Toyota, the largest carmaker in Japan, saw its shares plummet by over 5.4% last week, resulting in a market value loss of 2.45 trillion Japanese yen ($15.62 billion). Mazda, the second-largest automaker in Japan, experienced a 7.7% fall in its shares, leading to a market capitalization loss of 80.33 billion yen ($511.8 million).
Other automakers, including Honda, Suzuki, and Yamaha, were also found to have submitted false test data or falsified vehicles used in crash tests. This led to a drop in their stock prices as well.
Last week, Toyota announced a temporary halt in shipments and sales of three models made in Japan: the Corolla Fielder, Corolla Axio, and Yaris Cross, following an investigation by the ministry. 
Toyota&#8217;s Chairman Akio Toyoda apologized for the discrepancy, admitting that seven models were tested using methods that differ from the standards defined by the national authorities. 
Similarly, Mazda suspended the Roadster RF and Mazda 2 from May 30. Both companies assured customers that they can still drive their cars.

Why It Matters: The recent scandal comes on the heels of a broader investigation into Japanese automakers. Last week, the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism conducted an on-site investigation at Toyota&#8217;s headquarters following the discovery of irregularities in its certification applications. This was part of a comprehensive examination mandated across the industry due to a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39154549/gear-shift-in-japan-toyota-other-auto-giants-reportedly-under-inspection-over-certification-scan">safety test scandal</a> involving Toyota&#8217;s Daihatsu unit.
Furthermore, on Friday, reports surfaced that Mitsubishi UFJ Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MUFG#NYSE">MUFG</a>) and Sumitomo Mitsui Financial Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SMFG#NYSE">SMFG</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/06/39228602/japanese-mega-banks-plan-8-5b-toyota-stake-sale-report">plan to divest approximately</a> 1.32 trillion yen ($8.5 billion) worth of strategic shareholdings in Toyota. This move is part of a broader strategy to dismantle cross-held shares and mitigate adverse effects on Toyota&#8217;s share price. The banks will leverage Toyota&#8217;s recent 1 trillion yen buyback initiative.

Toyota's Market Value Plunges Over $15B Amid Test Falsification Scandal; Mazda, Honda, Suzuki Follow Suit

Japanese transportation ministry officials reportedly conducted an on-site investigation at the headquarters of Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) following the discovery of irregularities in its applications to certify specific vehicle models.
The broadening repercussions of the certification test issues originated from a safety test scandal involving Toyota&#8217;s Daihatsu compact car unit, reported Reuters.
This situation has also affected other Japanese automakers, as the ministry has mandated comprehensive examinations of certification procedures across the industry.
According to the report, Toyota, Mazda Motor Corp.(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), Honda Motor Company, Ltd. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), Suzuki Motor Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SZKMY#OTC">SZKMY</a>), and Yamaha Motor Co., Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/YMHAY#OTC">YMHAY</a>) acknowledged that they had provided either inaccurate or altered data during the vehicle certification process.

As per the ministry official, Toyota was the first company to undergo an inspection after being identified on Monday, and the remaining four automakers are also scheduled for inspections, per the report.
The report further cited some analysts who commented that Toyota would be under more pressure to strengthen governance, while others said the impact on sales is likely to be limited given that it is only suspending three model sales and many domestic rivals also fell short of ministry standards.
Yesterday, Toyota announced a temporary halt on shipments and sales of three models in Japan, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/06/39132201/toyota-temporarily-halts-shipments-and-sales-of-three-models-in-japan-after-government-finds-falsifi" rel="noreferrer noopener">effective immediately, amid a safety scandal</a>.
Toyota Motor disclosed on Monday in a press release that it is suspending shipments and sales of the Corolla Fielder, Corolla Axio, and Yaris Cross models in Japan.

Toyota, Subaru, Mazda Aim For Carbon-Neutral Future In Engine Development: Details

Toyota Motor Corp&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) has reportedly honored its labor union&#8217;s requests for salary and bonus increases for the fourth consecutive year, indicating a potential sustainable wage-price cycle in Japan&#8217;s economy.
The agreement with its unions, announced on Wednesday, led to a surge in the yen and a drop in government bond futures, hinting at anticipation of actions by the Bank of Japan, according to a report from&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-03-13/toyota-agrees-to-union-pay-hikes-bolsters-boj-policy-shift-view?srnd=industries-consumer&amp;sref=TBDibEcD" rel="noreferrer noopener">Bloomberg</a>.
Toyota&#8217;s agreements set a precedent for wage trends among major companies, employing over 5 million individuals, showcasing its pivotal role in Japan&#8217;s economic landscape.
The agreement with Toyota follows similar moves by other automakers like&nbsp;Honda Motor Co Ltd&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) and&nbsp;Mazda Motor Corp&nbsp;(OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>), reflecting a broader push for wage growth that surpasses inflation, the report adds.
The outcomes of these negotiations are expected to prompt the Bank of Japan to consider policy shifts, potentially marking the end of Japan&#8217;s prolonged negative interest rate regime by April, the report cited economists.

Toyota, Union Likely To Reach Deal On Pay Hike In Mid-March: Report

Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) may have been caught in a rut amid <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/01/36599836/exclusive-cpi-increase-just-a-hiccup-says-cme-economist-inflation-is-well-under-control" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">economic uncertainty</a> and an industry-wide slowdown. Still, it boasts a robust sales track record in the U.S. over the past eight years compared to traditional legacy automakers. On Thursday, Elon Musk, CEO of the electric vehicle giant, acknowledged and credited the performance.
What Happened: A Tesla influencer shared a graphic on X, formerly Twitter, illustrating volume growth among automakers from 2015 to 2023. Highlighting a 2 million decrease in U.S. light vehicle sales during this period, the influencer showcased a chart indicating that Tesla&#8217;s U.S. sales surged by 632,088 between 2015 and 2018. 
Notably, Hyundai Motor Company&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>) Kia subsidiary, Volkswagen AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>), Geely Automobile Holdings Limited (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GELYF#OTC">GELYF</a>), Subaru (owned by Fuji Heavy Industries), and Mazda Motor Corporation (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>) were the only automakers reporting positive growth.
In contrast, Detroit&#8217;s big three —&nbsp;General Motors Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>),&nbsp;Ford Motor Co.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), and&nbsp;Stellantis AG&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) — experienced sales declines of 504,718, 621,750, and 730,638 units, respectively.&nbsp;Toyota Motor Corp.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), the world&#8217;s largest automaker by volume, recorded a drop of 250,836 units between 2015 and 2023. In response to the post, Musk said: &#8221;Credit to the Tesla team.&#8221;&nbsp;

Why It&#8217;s Important:&nbsp;Tesla recently announced&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/01/36456191/tesla-analysts-call-deliveries-beat-a-major-achievement-but-one-bear-points-out-red" rel="noreferrer noopener">record fourth-quarter deliveries</a>&nbsp;totaling 484,507 units, including models such as the Model 3, Y, S, and X, as well as the Semi and Cybertruck. The company reported annual deliveries of 1.81 million units.
Tesla&#8217;s sales achievements are attributed to factors such as production efficiency, diversified production bases, and product appeal. The company&#8217;s Gigafactories are strategically located in the U.S., China, and Germany, with one under construction in Mexico. Plans are also in place for Tesla to enter the Indian market. Notably, Tesla&#8217;s production processes are more automated compared to traditional legacy counterparts.
Despite ambitious electric vehicle (EV) transitioning plans by U.S. automakers, they have struggled to meet their initial goals. The big three U.S. legacy automakers have scaled back their EV ambitions, with Toyota, for instance, maintaining a focus on hybrid EVs despite entering the pure-play battery EV market.
While Tesla&#8217;s dominance in the EV market may face challenges in the long term due to increasing competition from both legacy automakers and EV startups, its established scale over the years serves as a unique selling proposition. The recent surge in sales by China&#8217;s&nbsp;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>) has positioned it as the biggest battery EV manufacturer, surpassing Tesla in the fourth quarter.
The scale Tesla has built up over the years can be its unique selling proposition if it can execute its strategy.
Tesla ended Thursday&#8217;s session down 2.87% at $227.22, according to<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag"> Benzinga Pro data.</a>

The results of an annual survey that explored the reliability of auto brands showed that none of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/23/12/36272696/as-gm-ford-struggle-tesla-analyst-has-recommendation-for-jumpstarting-their-sagging">U.S. automakers</a> made it to the top ten.
What Happened: Asian and European automakers took the honors as the most reliable auto brands in 2023, according to the survey by Consumer Reports, a non-profit organization that does independent product testing and consumer-oriented research.
The findings were based on the survey of Consumer Reports&#8217; members regarding the problems they faced with their vehicles in the past year. The data pertained to 330,000 vehicles of model years 2000 to 2023 as well as a few early-introduced 2024 model years.
Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) and its Lexus luxury brand were the top two most trusted brands in 2023. BMW AG&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) Mini brand, Honda Motor Company&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) Acura brand as well as its namesake brand took the third, fourth, and fifth spot, respectively.

The overall reliability average score of Asian automakers was 63 on a scale of one to 100 and the metric was 46 for European automakers, Consumer Reports said.

Domestic Automakers Trail: The average reliability score for the U.S. automakers was 39 and none of them were in the top ten category. Among the U.S. automakers, the highest reliability score was for General Motors Corp.&#8217;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) Buick brand. Buick was ranked 12th and had a reliability score of 55.
Electric vehicle giant Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) took the 14th position and had a reliability score of 48 compared to top-scorer Lexus&#8217; 79. Tesla was followed by truck manufacturer Ram in the 15th place. The Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) was in the 22nd position.
Domestic brands trailed their Asian and European counterparts, with an average score of 39. 
Other Key Findings: The survey also found that hybrids, which are powered by both the ICE and electric motor working either independently or simultaneously, had 26% fewer problems than cars powered by internal combustion engine vehicles. The reliability of plug-in hybrid vehicles, or PHEVs, which rely mainly on electric motors and use ICE only as a backup, was a mixed bag, Consumer Reports said. They were found to have 146% more problems than ICE vehicles. 
Some PHEVs, including Toyota&#8217;s RAV4 Prime and Kia Sportage, performed above average.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/09/34453211/global-ev-market-share-reaches-15-in-2023-top-players-vehicles-and-companies-dominating-sector">EV sedans and SUVs</a> didn&#8217;t fare very well, with average reliability scores of 44 and 43, respectively. The metric was at a worse 30 for electric pickup trucks. Pureplay electrified vehicles had problems, primarily with EV drive system motors, charging systems, and batteries.
The KraneShares Electric Vehicles and Future Mobility Index ETF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KARS#NYSE">KARS</a>) ended Friday&#8217;s session down 0.55% at $25.37, according to <a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/lxquj26b2sag">Benzinga Pro data.</a>

Not Tesla Or Ford: This Foreign Giant Is Most Trusted Auto Brand Of 2023 As US Automakers Trail Behind Asian, European Rivals

Mazda Motor Corp.&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MZDAY#OTC">MZDAY</a>) global CEO, Masahiro Moro, expects that electric vehicles (EVs) will make up between a quarter and 40% of the automaker&#8217;s global sales by the end of the decade.
What Happened: In a recent <a href="https://www.autonews.com/talk-top/mazda-ceo-masahiro-moro-intentional-follower-evs">interview</a> with Automotive News, Moro, who took over as global CEO of Mazda Motor Corp. this past June, discussed the company&#8217;s future direction. He attributes the brand&#8217;s current positive trajectory, with record-breaking U.S. sales, to his previous position as the head of Mazda&#8217;s North American operations where he promoted larger, platform-specific vehicles that are now driving growth.
On the trajectory of EV sales in the future, Moro said, &#8220;Everyone is scaling back investment or pushing back timelines.&#8221;
The next hurdle for Moro is to oversee the launch of Mazda&#8217;s first dedicated electric vehicle platform and the transition towards 2030. This shift is expected to result in electric cars accounting for up to 40% of Mazda&#8217;s global sales.
Moro also elaborated on Mazda&#8217;s strategy to collaborate closely with its partner, Toyota, on software and electrical infrastructures. The aim is to create a smarter, more socially connected battery EV, with software playing a key role. Almost 90% of the software will be similar to Toyota&#8217;s, including the operating system and hardware.
Moro said on the collaboration, &#8220;It&#8217;s much more efficient because the software is going to the base for many products going forward.&#8221; He said, &#8220;There are many things an individual company can&#8217;t do alone.&#8221;

He also provided some insight on Mazda&#8217;s new EV platform, expected to debut between 2025 and 2027. The details of the platform are still being fine-tuned in response to evolving regulations and policies. Moro also pointed to the financial unpredictability surrounding the demand for electric vehicles, suggesting that Mazda might initially take a more conservative approach to scaling up.
According to the CEO, Mazda plans to design and manufacture the EV in Japan during Phase 2, from 2025-2027. He also expressed interest in initiating North American production in Phase 3, from 2028 onwards. By 2030, Mazda intends to have seven or eight battery EV models worldwide.
Why It Matters: Mazda&#8217;s announcement comes as many Americans remain hesitant about transitioning to electric vehicles, as highlighted in a recent <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/10/35215482/most-americans-still-wary-of-evs-and-prefer-toyota-over-tesla-if-they-switched-new-poll">survey</a> conducted by Yahoo Finance and Ipsos.
Notably, other major players in the EV market, such as Tesla Inc have experienced fluctuations in sales, as seen with Tesla&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/government/23/12/36068781/teslas-china-sales-plunge-can-musks-electric-giant-rebound-amid-fierce-competition">China sales drop</a> in November.
Similarly, General Motors and Ford Motors have dealt with their share of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/23/07/33286285/gm-and-ford-are-having-ev-difficulties">EV difficulties</a>, including supply chain disruptions and weakened demand.
Despite these challenges, Mazda&#8217;s aggressive push towards EVs could potentially position the company as a strong contender in the growing global EV market.

Mazda CEO Foresees Electric Vehicles Making Up To 40% Of Global Sales By 2030

The United Auto Workers union has initiated a campaign to unionize workers at 13 non-union automakers <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/uaw">across the United States.</a>
This initiative, announced on Wednesday, aims to bring nearly 150,000 autoworkers from major companies including BMW (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bmwyy#OTC">BMWYY</a>), Honda (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hmc#NYSE">HMC</a>), Hyundai (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hymtf#OTC">HYMTF</a>), Lucid (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/lcid#NASDAQ">LCID</a>), Mazda (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mzday#OTC">MZDAY</a>), Mercedes-Benz (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/mbgyy#OTC">MBGYY</a>), Nissan (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nsany#OTC">NSANY</a>), Rivian (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/rivn#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>), Subaru (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/fujhy#OTC">FUJHY</a>), Tesla (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tsla#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Toyota (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tm#NYSE">TM</a>), Volkswagen (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/vwapy#OTC">VWAPY</a>)&nbsp;and Volvo&nbsp;under its wing.
The campaign involves workers signing electronic support cards for union efforts, a step that could pave the way for the unionization of U.S. factories belonging to these automotive manufacturers,&nbsp;CNBC <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2023/11/29/uaw-launches-union-campaigns-at-tesla-12-others.html">reports</a>.
The UAW clarified that organizing every plant or automaker participating in the campaign is not a certainty. A formal vote in favor of UAW representation would be required by the workers.
UAW President Shawn Fain, following the ratification of record contracts with General Motors (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gm#NYSE">GM</a>), Ford Motor Co (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/f#NYSE">F</a>) and Stellantis NV (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/stla#NYSE">STLA</a>) that included significant hourly pay raises and other benefits, has expressed the union&#39;s ambition to expand its influence.

Fain&#39;s vision extends beyond the traditional &quot;Big Three&quot; Detroit automakers, aiming to encompass a broader range of companies by 2028. This expansion strategy marks a departure from the UAW&#39;s conventional approach of focusing on one company at a time.
According to CNBC, the UAW&#39;s membership has seen a dramatic decline, dropping from about 700,000 members in 2001 to 383,000 at the start of this year, a stark contrast to its peak of 1.5 million in 1979.
Despite this, the union&#39;s recent success in securing favorable contracts with the Detroit automakers has prompted non-union companies like Hyundai, Toyota, and Honda to raise worker wages, a phenomenon Fain refers to as the &quot;UAW bump.&quot;
The UAW&#39;s history with organizing non-Detroit automakers has been challenging. Efforts to unionize the plants of foreign-based automakers in the U.S., such as Volkswagen and Nissan, have previously fallen short. The union has also made attempts to organize Tesla&#39;s Fremont plant in California, but with limited success.

From Tesla To Toyota: UAW Launches Ambitious Campaign To Unionize Top Auto Players

Japanese <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/07/33121305/is-toyota-ready-to-take-on-tesla-for-electric-vehicle-lead-i-dont-know-if-love-can-beat-tesla">automaker Toyota Motor Corp</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) is leading customer satisfaction in the U.S. auto market, as revealed by a recent market report.
Customer Satisfaction Ranking: Toyota leads mass-market vehicles and the industry overall with a score of 84 out of 100, as per the American Customer Satisfaction Index&#8216;s (ACSI) latest automobile study. 
Other leading Japanese auto players like Subaru, Honda Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), and Mazda Motor Corp (OTCPK: MZDAY) are also not far behind. 
Chrysler ranks lowest in customer satisfaction with a dismal ACSI score of 71. 
Among luxury automakers, EV giant Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is tied with Lexus — a brand owned by Toyota — with a score of 83, followed by General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) Cadillac. German players Audi, BMW, and Mercedes-Benz are tied for the third position. 
See Also: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/everything-you-need-to-know-about-tesla-stock" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Everything You Need to Know About Tesla Stock</a>
The EV Fad: Electric and hybrid vehicle drivers are more satisfied as compared to gas vehicle drivers, the report noted. 
However, EV adoption continues to be held back by the lack of public chargers, customer expectations for reliability, and higher complaint rates. Hybrid drivers are relatively happier in terms of quality, value, and dependability, the report added. 
"EVs must improve before automakers can justify the price differential for a broader audience. Early EV adopters find these vehicles perform well relative to their expectations, yet ACSI data show they are only superior in technology and warranties. That is not enough to convince more consumers to leave gas in the past." said Associate Professor of Marketing at Michigan State University and Director of Research Emeritus at the ACSI Forrest Morgeson. 
The study is based on interviews with about 9,000 customers between July 2022 and June 2023.

Tesla Ties With Lexus In US Auto Customer Satisfaction But Remains Behind This Foreign Rival

Panasonic Holdings Corp&nbsp;(OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/pcrfy#OTC">PCRFY</a>)&nbsp;Panasonic Energy, for the first time, emphasized the need to build around four&nbsp;<a class="editor-rtfLink" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/22/10/29474807/tesla-supplier-to-commence-kansas-ev-battery-plant-construction-in-november" style="background-image:initial; background-position:initial; background-size:initial; background-repeat:initial; background-attachment:initial; background-origin:initial; background-clip:initial; margin-top:0pt; margin-bottom:0pt; color:#4a6ee0" target="_blank">more factories to</a>&nbsp;sharply boost the annual capacity of batteries for electric vehicles by 2031.
