In a recent development, German automaker BMW AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) has adjusted its financial guidance for 2024 due to a slump in global sales.
What Happened: As per a press release from BMW on Tuesday, the company&#8217;s Board of Management has revised the 2024 financial year guidance. The decision was influenced by several factors, including delivery stops and technical issues related to the Integrated Braking System (IBS) supplied by a vendor. These problems are expected to negatively affect sales in the latter half of the year.
The IBS-related technical issues impact over 1.5 million vehicles, leading to additional warranty costs in the third quarter. Moreover, despite government stimulus measures, the company is facing subdued demand in China.
Consequently, BMW now expects a slight decrease in deliveries compared to the previous year, an EBIT margin between 6% and 7%, and a Return on Capital Employed (RoCE) between 11% and 13% for 2024. The Free-Cash-Flow in the Automotive Segment is anticipated to be above €4 billion ($4.41 billion) for the financial year.

The revised earnings and additional inventory are expected to impact the third quarter more than the fourth. The full quarterly results and the adjusted outlook report will be published on Nov. 6, 2024.
Why It Matters: The revision in BMW&#8217;s financial outlook comes on the heels of a series of events that have impacted the company&#8217;s performance. In September, BMW had to recall over <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/09/40682126/bmw-recalls-over-140k-mini-cooper-se-electric-vehicles-globally-due-to-battery-overheating-risks">140,000 Mini Cooper SE</a> electric vehicles globally due to battery overheating problems.

<a href="https://elplanteo.com/que-es-el-canamo-hemp/">Hemp</a> is gaining ground in the automotive industry. Interior panels and structural components are some of the parts now being made from the plant's fibers.
Major automakers like Volkswagen (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAPY#OTC">VWAPY</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLKPF#OTC">VLKPF</a>), BMW (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) and Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) are actively exploring hemp use in their vehicles, driven by the need to reduce carbon emissions, improve fuel efficiency and respond to the growing demand for eco-friendly products from consumers.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">A Commitment Between The Auto Industry And Hemp</h3>
Volkswagen, in collaboration with biomaterials startup Revoltech GmbH, has launched a research project to develop a leather substitute, creating a hemp-based artificial alternative. The new material, called LOVR, is vegan, oil-free, recyclable and compostable, designed to meet the company&#8217;s sustainability standards.

The brand plans to begin using this material in its models starting in 2028, according to Hemp Today. Additionally, the use of hemp fibers, which are byproducts of local agricultural waste, highlights the effort to maximize resource use and minimize waste.
BMW, another renowned automaker and the world's most sustainable, according to the S&amp;P Dow Jones stock index, has incorporated hemp into the door panels of its i3 <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles">electric vehicles</a> to reduce its carbon footprint. In addition to enhancing sustainability, using the plant helps reduce the vehicle&#8217;s weight, improving fuel efficiency.
The company is also exploring the use of other natural fibers, like flax and kenaf, and is developing "wood foams" made from 100% renewable materials. These efforts are part of a larger goal to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 40% by 2030.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Blast From The Past</h3>
<a href="https://elplanteo.com/coches-canamo-ford/">Henry Ford'</a>s vision of a car made from sustainable materials continues to inspire the auto industry. In 1940, he introduced a prototype car made from hemp fiber and resin, described as "ten times stronger than steel." While the idea didn't take off at the time, it's now seen as a precursor to current efforts to use renewable materials in car manufacturing.
Ford has already tested hemp fibers in its interior car components and has incorporated natural fiber composites into models like the Ford Focus.
Mercedes-Benz (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGAF#OTC">MBGAF</a>) and Audi are also exploring hemp for their vehicles. Both brands are incorporating the fibers into interior components to reduce weight and enhance sustainability.
Despite advances, integrating hemp into mass automotive production presents technical challenges related to the material's consistency and durability under different conditions. Additionally, the supply chain to source hemp sustainably and at scale remains a developing area. Manufacturers must still balance the cost of implementation and scalability with the environmental benefits.

Toyota, BMW Update Partnership On Hydrogen Fuel Cell Vehicles, Sign New MoU To Accelerate Development Of Zero-Emission Cars; BMW To Launch First Hydrogen Model In 2028

The world-renowned German automobile manufacturer Volkswagen (OTCPK:VWAGY) could soon be changing the way it produces its faux leather.
What Happened: The second largest auto maker in the world by vehicle sales partnered with the German start-up Revoltech GmbH to research and develop sustainable materials based on industrial hemp. These could be used as sustainable surface materials in Volkswagen models from 2028.
"The sustainable use of resources is a key pillar in our ACCELERATE strategy and is therefore firmly anchored in our mindset and our actions," <a href="https://www.volkswagen-newsroom.com/en/press-releases/leather-from-industrial-hemp-innovative-and-sustainable-material-for-future-car-interiors-18665">stated</a> Andreas Walingen, head of strategy at the Volkswagen brand. "Our clear goal is to fuse customer wishes, sustainability requirements and corporate interests."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Groundbreaking LOVR Material</h2>
The 100% biological material, called LOVR – "leather-free, oil-free, vegan and residue-based," is made from industrial hemp grown for the food industry. Material made from 100% bio-based hemp uses residues of the regional hemp industry. It can be produced on existing industrial plants and recycled or composted at the end of its service life in an automobile.
 "Our innovative surface material called LOVR that we are developing and testing for the automotive industry in cooperation with Volkswagen is scalable and groundbreaking for sustainability in the automotive sector," Lucas Fuhrmann, CEO and co-founder Revoltech GmbH said in a statement.
The first presentations of the innovative material have already received positive responses and feedback from customers.
"In our search for new materials, we are very open to new ideas from many different industries. At Technical Development, we place a strong focus on innovative, creative and sustainable solutions for holistic, resource-saving vehicle development," said Kai Grünitz, Volkswagen brand board member for technical development.
Other automotive giants have already researched or used these hemp-based materials in their cars. For example, BMW's (OTCPK:BMWYY) i3 electric cars have door panels made from a combination of hemp, natural fibers and a bio-based plastic, <a href="https://hemptoday.net/volkswagen-says-it-is-developing-hemp-fiber-based-material-to-replace-faux-leather/">writes</a> Hemp Today.
Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) is known for experimenting with sustainable materials, including hemp. Its famous model Ford Focus has natural fiver composites in its interior. Mercedes-Benz (OTCPK:MBGAF), as well, included hemp-based material in various parts of its cars' interiors.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Hemp's Versatility</h2>
Hemp has the ability to blend with various polymers, which makes it suitable for various exterior applications. Used in composites, hemp fibers enhance the stiffness and strength of structural parts of a car, improving crash performance and overall structural integrity, writes the outlet. Furthermore, hemp fibers are known to be solid insulators, which is why are used in panels and materials that need to have soundproofing and thermal properties.
Material made from industrial hemp is also used in construction building and is called hempcrete. It is an eco-friendly building material that blends the inner core of industrial hemp with a lime-based binder, creating a bio-composite. Its benefits include climate-friendly and fireproof properties. Hempcrete is considered a "carbon negative" material as its production absorbs more carbon pollution out of the air than it releases.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Timing</h2>
Volkswagen's decision to explore hemp's potential comes on the heels of the German government changing its cannabis and hemp laws and aiming to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39840487/green-wave-in-germany-now-includes-hemp-new-bill-promotes-industrial-production">promote the industry</a>. In July, the German Federal Ministry of Food and Agriculture published a <a href="https://internationalcbc.com/german-federal-ministry-of-food-and-agriculture-publishes-draft-industrial-hemp-bill/?utm_source=ICBC+Combined+List+Newsletter+and+Outreach&amp;utm_campaign=078816e21e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2024_07_15_03_37&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_-078816e21e-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">draft</a> bill aimed at modernizing the policies surrounding industrial hemp cultivation and handling. The proposed&nbsp;Industrial Hemp Liberalization Act (NLG)&nbsp;is set to eliminate legal uncertainties and open new avenues in the industrial hemp sector, <a href="https://internationalcbc.com/german-federal-ministry-of-food-and-agriculture-publishes-draft-industrial-hemp-bill/?utm_source=ICBC+Combined+List+Newsletter+and+Outreach&amp;utm_campaign=078816e21e-EMAIL_CAMPAIGN_2024_07_15_03_37&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_term=0_-078816e21e-%5BLIST_EMAIL_ID%5D" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">reported</a> InternationalCBC.
In May, Ministry of Food and Agriculture (BMEL) Minister Cem Özdemir confirmed lawmakers removed the controversial&nbsp;&#8220;intoxication clause&#8221; that states it is theoretically possible that an individual could get high by consuming large amounts of industrial hemp.
Germany, the biggest country in Europe by population, reformed its cannabis laws this year. Partial legalization <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38023610/heres-what-you-need-to-know-about-weed-legalization-in-germany-that-just-took-effect" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">took effect in Germany on April 1</a>, allowing adults over 18 to possess up to 25 grams of dried cannabis and cultivate up to three plants at home.
Cannabis clubs became legal on July 1, 2024, and the first such marijuana social clubs <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/07/39690787/first-cannabis-club-in-germany-opens-lawmaker-says-it-will-stem-illicit-marker-cops-say-the-oppo" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">opened their doors on July 8</a> in Lower Saxony.

Volkswagen Considers Hemp To Develop Sustainable Substitute For Imitation Leather

BMW (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) recalling its Mini Cooper SE electric vehicles due to battery overheating problems, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/05/38923402/bmw-mini-cooper-imports-linked-to-banned-chinese-components-report">potentially impacting over 140,000 cars globally.</a>
What Happened: According to the company, around 39,000 vehicles in Germany could be affected. The automaker emphasized that there have been no disclosed accidents or injuries related to this issue, Reuters reported on Monday.
The battery system issues could lead to overheating, and &#8220;a vehicle fire, even when the vehicle is parked, cannot be ruled out,&#8221; the statement noted.
The car&#8217;s software includes a diagnostic function that detects battery malfunctions and alerts the driver. Customers receiving this alert are advised to visit a Mini partner, the company added, according to the report.

Why It Matters: This recall is part of a broader trend of safety concerns for BMW. Recently, the company recalled nearly 721,000 vehicles in the U.S. due to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40460548/bmw-recalls-nearly-721k-vehicles-in-us-over-short-circuit-worries-both-gas-and-hybrid-electric-cars">short-circuit risks</a>, which could also lead to fires. This recall included both internal combustion engine (ICE) and hybrid electric cars.
Earlier in August, BMW recalled over 105,000 vehicles in the U.S. due to fire risks stemming from <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40248854/bmw-recalls-over-105k-vehicles-in-u-s-over-fire-risks-due-to-overheating-starter-motor">overheating starter motors</a>. This issue similarly posed significant safety concerns. 
Additionally, BMW is working to solidify its partnership with Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) to expedite the development of fuel cell vehicles (FCV), aiming to enhance its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/08/40603154/toyota-bmw-to-solidify-partnership-to-expedite-fcv-development">competitiveness in the hydrogen-powered car market</a>.
These recalls come at a time when Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) is reportedly losing its &#8220;cool factor&#8221; among younger consumers, while brands like BMW continue to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40244060/teslas-cool-factor-ebbing-while-these-2-auto-brands-command-more-loyalty-than-elon-musks-ev-giant-mo">command strong loyalty</a>, according to a Morgan Stanley survey released in August.

European Stocks Little Moved On Labor Day, German DAX Mark Record Close, Natural Gas Futures Rise: What's Driving Markets Monday?

Toyota Motor Corporation (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/tm#NYSE">TM</a>) and BMW AG (OTC: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/bmwyy#OTC">BMWYY</a>) are set to deepen their collaboration on fuel cell vehicles (FCV) to boost the competitiveness of their hydrogen-powered cars.
Per Nikkei Asia, under this expanded partnership, which is expected to be officially announced on Sept. 5, 2024, Toyota will supply essential components like hydrogen tanks and fuel cell systems to BMW, which will then manufacture and sell mass-produced FCVs over the next few years.
Toyota and BMW originally teamed up on FCV development in 2012 to create greener vehicles amid stricter environmental regulations. Hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles produce only water as emissions and don&#39;t face the range anxiety associated with battery electric vehicles (BEVs). They also refuel as quickly as traditional internal-combustion-engine vehicles. However, FCVs are currently expensive to produce, resulting in low profit margins, and require hydrogen storage at extremely low temperatures. The expanded partnership aims to standardize components and reduce the cost of FCVs, which have struggled to gain popularity due to affordability issues.
Toyota, a leader in FCV technology, launched the world&#39;s first mass-produced FCV, the Mirai, in 2014. However, due to the high price of the model of more than 7 million yen compared with the average car price in Japan of 2.64 million yen in 2023, TM sold only about 26,000 units since then, making a small fraction of the company&#39;s total annual sales of more than 10 million vehicles.
Per WardsAuto, BMW has developed a concept FCV, the iX5 Hydrogen, which features two hydrogen tanks and offers a range of more than 310 miles, with a refueling time of just 3-4 minutes. Incorporating Toyota&#39;s fuel cell system could help BMW accelerate the iX5 Hydrogen&#39;s production timeline. Despite the potential of FCVs, they have not yet achieved widespread success, mainly due to the scarcity of hydrogen refueling stations. The expanded alliance is also expected to focus on the development of hydrogen infrastructure in Europe. Per the European Automobile Manufacturers&#39; Association, there are currently only 270 hydrogen filling stations, much less than 632,000 public BEV charging stations in the European Union as of the end of 2023.

Toyota & BMW to Solidify Partnership to Expedite FCV Development

German automaker BMW (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40155730/tesla-registrations-in-uk-dip-13-till-july-end-while-warren-buffett-backed-byd-mg-motor-register-gro">trumped American EV giant </a>Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) in BEV registrations for the first time in Europe last month, according to market research firm JATO Dynamics.
What Happened: According to the firm, BMW saw 14,869 of its battery-electric vehicles registered in July, winning over Tesla, which had 14,561 registrations, by a slight margin.
Europe&#8217;s most popular automaker Volkswagen, meanwhile, delivered just 12,213 EVs. However, the automaker continues to lead in overall vehicle sales. 
Key Models: Despite the fall in registrations as compared to July 2023, the Tesla Model Y was the bestselling EV last month, with 9,544 units registered. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/23/12/36345955/bmw-plans-half-a-million-ev-deliveries-in-2024-partners-with-mercedes-report">BMW&#8217;s BEV registrations</a>, meanwhile, were spurred by the popularity of the company&#8217;s new models including iX1, i4, and i5.
Dwindling EV Demand: Overall, the demand for EVs fell in July with market share falling to 13.5% from 14.6% in the corresponding month of last year. 
"The lack of clarity around the incentives for &#8211; and future of &#8211; EVs continues to present a barrier to consumers considering an EV. These factors, alongside the low residual value of EVs contributed to the decline seen in July," Felipe Munoz, Global Analyst at JATO Dynamics,&nbsp;said.

BMW Outpaces Tesla With More BEV Registrations In Europe In July Than Elon Musk's EV Giant For The First Time

German automaker BMW (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) is <a href="https://benzinga.com/topic/recall">recalling</a> 720,796 vehicles in the U.S. owing to concerns of a short circuit and increased risks of fire.
What Happened: The recall population includes several model years of both gas and hybrid electric vehicles. Several units of X5, X3, and even a few units of the 2 series convertible are included in the recall. 
An improperly sealed electrical connector on the water pump of some of these vehicles may short circuit on being exposed to water, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said. This may increase the risk of a fire, the auto safety regulator added. 
As for a solution, the company&#8217;s dealers will inspect and replace the water pump as well as the plug connector if required and install a protective shield at no cost to the customer, the regulator said. 
Why It Matters: BMW took cognizance of the issue after it was contacted by the Korean Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport regarding an incident involving a thermal event in March earlier this year.
While the company is not aware of any accidents or injuries related to the issue, it is aware of about 18 related customer concerns in the U.S. market, the regulator added.
Earlier this month, BMW <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40248854/bmw-recalls-over-105k-vehicles-in-u-s-over-fire-risks-due-to-overheating-starter-motor">recalled over 105,000 vehicles</a> citing concerns of a starter motor overheating and increasing the risks of fire in the engine compartment.

BMW Recalls Nearly 721K Vehicles In US Over Short Circuit Worries: Both Gas And Hybrid Electric Cars Affected

German automaker BMW (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) is recalling <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40244060/teslas-cool-factor-ebbing-while-these-2-auto-brands-command-more-loyalty-than-elon-musks-ev-giant-mo">105,588 vehicles in the U.S. </a>citing risks of fire owing to an overheating starter motor.
What Happened: The recall population includes several 2019-2021 model year vehicles including the BMW X7, X6, X5, and 8 Series Convertible, among others. 
The starter motor in these vehicles may overheat due to electrical overload upon repeated attempts to start the vehicle in case of a motor failure. The overheating can cause the nearby materials in the engine compartment to catch fire, the U.S. auto safety regulator National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) said. 
BMW told the regulator in a filing that the company is aware of about twelve customer complaints and associated field incidents related to the issue but no accidents or injuries. 
BMW dealers will update the vehicle software at no cost to the customer to prevent the electric overload on the starter and mitigate the fire risks. 
Why It Matters: Last month, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39801780/eu-nations-divided-over-tariffs-on-chinese-evs-commission-considers-compromise-for-bmw-and-volks">BMW issued</a> a recall for over 291,000 2018-2023 model year X3 vehicles in the U.S. citing concerns that the attachment for the interior cargo rail may become damaged in a rear crash and cause a cargo rail detachment. 
The company then said that its dealers would replace the rear cargo rail attachment bolts at no cost to the customer to resolve the concern.

BMW Recalls Over 105K Vehicles In U.S. Over Fire Risks Due To Overheating Starter Motor

The Tesla, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) brand is losing its charm among the younger generation, while there has been a continued preference for all things Apple, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), Morgan Stanley said in a report released Sunday.
ICEs Over EVs: Morgan Stanley&#8217;s survey of 575 summer interns, who will likely grow to be the next-gen business leaders, revealed that they preferred gasoline-powered cars over electric vehicles by nearly a 2:1 ratio. 
The ideas of these are bound to challenge the status quo, the firm said.
The preference for EVs fell for a second year, with only 15% favoring these vehicles. This was 22% in 2023 and 30% in 2022. On the other hand, ICEs were favored by 28%, up from 23% in 2022.
The data affirms Morgan Stanley&#8217;s view as it took down its 2030 EV penetration forecast from 25% to 20%.
A little more than 50% think owning/leasing a car will still be necessary in 2030, up from 48% of the respondents who thought likewise last year.
The percentage of respondents who said they would not use robotaxis increased from 12% last year to 19% in 2024. &#8220;Full autonomy may be farther out than most predict – particularly from a consumer trust standpoint,&#8221; Morgan Stanley said.

Tesla&#8217;s &#8220;cool factor&#8221; is cooling, the firm said, with only 11% of the respondents saying it is the most desirable brand, down from 14% last year and 30% in 2021. Tesla&#8217;s loss translated to gains for Mercedes-Benz Group AG&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGAF#OTC">MBGAF</a>) Mercedes brand and Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>). The former was the most desirable for 19% of the respondents, while the latter for 15%.
Apple Brand Pull Intact: Morgan Stanley said there has been continued preference for &#8220;all things Apple&#8221;. The survey found that the iPhone was the dominant smartphone brand, with 93% ownership, up two points from 2023. The preference for the iPhone stems from the focus on superior battery life and compatibility with other owned technology devices.
But only 4% mentioned AI-powered features as one of the most important drivers of smartphone purchases, which will be key to iPhone upgrades this next cycle. 
A recent BofA report said <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/02/37372651/apple-customers-remain-loyal-to-iphone-feel-vision-pro-is-too-pricey">Apple customers remain loyal to the iPhone </a>— with its unique iOS operating system being the chief selling point among a generation of&nbsp;iPhone users&nbsp;— they may not embrace the Vision Pro just yet.
Beyond the iPhone, respondents&#8217; Apple ecosystem spending remained robust, with 68% of them spending on Apple Services in the last 6 months, and 93% owning at least one Apple device in addition to an iPhone, with AirPod, Mac and iPad at the top of the list. However, only 1% of the respondents currently owned the Apple Vision Pro AR/VR headset.
Tesla fell 1.13% to $189.59 in premarket trading, according to<a href="https://benzinga.grsm.io/register174"> Benzinga Pro data, </a>while Apple moved down 0.83% to $208.07.

Tesla's 'Cool Factor' Ebbing While These 2 Auto Brands Command More Loyalty Than Elon Musk's EV Giant, Morgan Stanley Survey Finds

LG Energy Solution Ltd., a South Korean battery manufacturer, is slowing down the construction of its third plant with General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) in Michigan due to weak demand for electric vehicles and concerns over potential <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39871513/trump-pours-cold-water-on-industry-tesla-falls-ahead-of-earnings-week-fords-step-back-in-ev-plan">political shifts in the U.S.</a>
LG Energy said it is "adjusting the speed of overall investment" and exploring "flexible operation" options for its facilities, according to a message sent to <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-07-22/lg-slows-ev-cell-plant-with-gm-in-us-as-political-worries-swirl?srnd=phx-industries&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">Bloomberg News</a>. 
LG Energy and GM commenced the project in 2022 with an investment of approximately $2.6 billion, targeting the first half of next year for operational commencement.

Additionally, Korean firms are apprehensive about the U.S. presidential election, having invested significantly in North America following President Joe Biden's clean energy initiative, which promotes domestic EV production and reduces dependence on Chinese suppliers.
Former President Donald Trump has pledged to dismantle the Inflation Reduction Act and reverse Biden&#8217;s pro-EV measures if he returns to office. At last week&#8217;s Republican National Convention, Trump promised to "end the electric vehicle mandate on day one." 
The Biden administration set a goal for 50% of all new vehicles sold to be electric by 2030. 
Earlier this month, LG CEO Kim Dong Myung emphasized the need to adjust investment speeds and urged employees to seek ways to enhance investment flexibility and efficiency.
Meanwhile, GM is also revising its expectations for its EV program. CEO Mary Barra recently stated that the company would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39786382/gm-delays-1m-ev-production-target-beyond-2025-market-isnt-developing-were-going-to-be-guided-by-">not meet its goal of producing one million EVs</a> by the end of next year.
Samsung SDI Co., another major Korean battery maker and supplier for BMW AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), has highlighted the slowdown as "a new crisis."
The company has two planned plants with Stellantis in Indiana and another with GM in the same state. Similarly, SK On Co., a supplier for Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and Hyundai Motor Co (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HYMTF#OTC">HYMTF</a>), has declared an emergency after reporting significant losses in Q1.
Parent company SK Innovation Co. is evaluating options to enhance SK On's competitiveness, including potential restructuring.
SK On has two operational plants in Georgia, with another planned in collaboration with Hyundai. The company also intended to establish three additional plants with Ford—two in Kentucky and one in Tennessee—financed through Biden's administration funds. 
However, the start of a second Kentucky facility has been postponed due to slowing EV sales.
A June report from the Korea Institute for Industrial Economics &amp; Trade indicated that Korean battery manufacturers might consider scaling back their U.S. investment plans if the IRA is altered following the US presidential election.

Tesla Sees 24% Drop In California Registrations As EV Competition Heats Up

European Union governments have expressed differing opinions on the imposition of EU tariffs on imports of electric vehicles (EVs) manufactured in China, as indicated in a <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/electric-vehicles" rel="noreferrer noopener">non-binding but influential vote.</a>
The European Commission, responsible for the EU&#8217;s trade policy, has imposed provisional tariffs of up to 37.6% on electric vehicles imported from China and has sought input from EU member states in a consultative vote.
Twelve EU members endorsed the tariffs, four opposed them, and eleven abstained from voting, Reuters reported, citing people familiar with the discussions.
Also Read:&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39787139/chinese-ev-thrive-despite-tariff-hikes-foreign-rivals-struggle" rel="noreferrer noopener">Chinese EV Thrive Despite Tariff Hikes, Foreign Rivals Struggle</a>
The Commission is likely to consider these votes when determining whether to proceed with definitive duties in what is the EU&#8217;s most prominent trade case to date.
France, Italy, and Spain supported the tariffs, whereas Germany, Finland, and Sweden abstained.
A German source told Reuters that their abstention was in the spirit of &#8220;critical solidarity&#8221; with the Commission.
An official from the Finnish embassy expressed doubts about the measure aligning with EU interests, noting not all European car manufacturers supported it.
Swedish trade minister Johan Forssell emphasized the importance of dialogue between the Commission and China to resolve the issue.
Beijing has warned of extensive retaliatory measures.
The Commission plans to extend its investigation for three months before deciding on proposing definitive duties, typically lasting five years, Reuters added.
Any proposed tariffs would require a binding vote among EU members, and could be blocked if 15 member countries representing 65% of the EU population vote against.
As a gesture of compromise, the European Commission has indicated potential consideration for a reduced tariff on BMW&#8216;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) China-made electric Mini and Volkswagen AG&#8217;s (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VLKAF#OTC">VLKAF</a>) (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) Cupra Tavascan.

Conversations are <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39448914/china-agrees-to-discuss-ev-tariffs-with-eu-germany-welcomes-it-as-first-step-but-says-many-more-will">moving forward between China and the European Union</a> on a deal that could benefit electric vehicle (EV) companies from both economic powerhouses.
Willingness from both sides to de-escalate a looming tariff war for the car industry can be read as an oasis of mutual trust within the growing trend of protectionism and economic decoupling that has marked relations between China and the West in recent months.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">New Tariffs On EVs Threaten Carmakers In China, EU</h3>
Germany is fearful of the effects of a recent EU decision to slap an extra tax of up to 38% on some Chinese EV brands, on top of an already-existing tariff of 10%.&nbsp;
For some Chinese EV makers, like SAIC Motor Corp., this could mean a 48% tax on all units sent to the EU. Geely Automobile Holdings Ltd. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GELYF#OTC">GELYF</a>) could have its cars face a 30% tax and BYD Company ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>), 27%.
According <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2024-06-24/china-floats-perks-for-german-carmakers-in-bid-to-stop-ev-levies?srnd=homepage-europe&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">to</a> Bloomberg, Beijing has suggested that Germany could benefit if the EU were to drop the announced raise.
An agreement would primarily benefit luxury German brands like Mercedes Benz Group ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MBGYY#OTC">MBGYY</a>), DR ING H C F PORSCHE ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DRPRY#OTC">DRPRY</a>) and Bayerische Motoren Werke ADR (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>), whose units are in risk of receiving extra tariffs in China.
If the EU were to move forward with its decision, launching the new tariffs by July, China could retaliate with higher tariffs on EU-made cars.

In May, Beijing said it could take its 15% tariff on EU-made cars to up to 25% for large-engine vehicles, in a move that is putting pressure on Germany to act. Large-engine vehicles are considered those with 2.5 liter engines and above, a hallmark of German luxury car brands, which enjoy a healthy market in China.
In the U.S., Chinese EVs have had difficulty gaining market share given high tariffs,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/05/38758049/biden-plans-new-tariffs-on-china-targets-electric-vehicles-and-other-strategic-sectors-report"> which are due to climb above 102% for Chinese electric cars</a> this year.
The decision was announced last month by the Biden administration, quadrupling tariffs on China-made EVs and EV components in an effort to protect the domestic car industry and avoid a flood of Chinese cars in U.S. soil.&nbsp;
U.S. carmakers like Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Rivian Automotive Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>), General Motors Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>) and Ford Motor Co (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) welcomed the decision.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Can Germany Push The EU To A Halt?</h3>
During conversations held over the weekend between Robert Habeck, Vice-Chancellor of Germany and his Chinese counterpart Wang Wentao, China proposed lowering existing tariffs of 15% on large-engine cars in exchange for dropping the announced tariff hikes by the EU.
Habeck, who performs as Germany's economy minister, has been on an official visit to the Asian nation.
Yet Germany has to convince the bloc that the planned hike isn't worth pursuing, and pressure by the bloc's largest economy could stir conflict within the bloc.&nbsp;
The EU's decision came as a way to level the playing field after a probe concluded that Chinese government subsidies left European car companies at a disadvantage.
The new tariffs were described as a legal action stemming from a months-long probe, while any change to that decision would be politically and economically motivated.
Germany has declared itself against the EU tariffs and Chancellor Olaf Scholz said Monday that he expects a negotiation to result favorable before the EU tariffs begin being collected.
For now, the EU's tax is provisional and would be set definitely in November unless changed.

Deal Between Germany, China Could Stop Looming Tit-For-Tat On EV Tariffs

Chinese carmakers have reportedly called upon Beijing to raise tariffs on European gasoline-powered cars. This move is seen as a retaliatory measure against the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39292802/eu-tariffs-on-chinese-evs-raises-red-flags-battery-maker-warns-of-dwindling-demand-for-material-shor">European Union&#8217;s restrictions</a> on the export of Chinese-made electric vehicles.
What Happened: The Chinese auto industry appealed during a closed-door meeting on Tuesday. The meeting was organized by China&#8217;s Ministry of Commerce and was attended by both Chinese and European car companies, including SAIC, BYD (OTCPK: BYDDY), Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>), Volkswagen (OTCPK: VWAGY), and Porsche Automobil (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/POAHY#OTC">POAHY</a>), Reuters reported citing the state-backed Global Times.
The industry representatives suggested that Beijing should consider raising the provisional tariff on gasoline cars with large-displacement engines. This request comes in response to the EU&#8217;s recent imposition of tariffs to protect its car industry from Chinese competition.
&#8220;Personally, I think it is unfair to start a tariff war solely on the basis of (China&#8217;s) capacity utilization rate and insufficient demand for China&#8217;s new energy vehicles,&#8221; said Zhang Yansheng, chief research fellow, China Center for International Economic Exchanges.

The European Commission has indicated that it is open to discussing a mutually agreeable solution to the situation.
Why It Matters: EU car exports to China totaled €19.4 billion ($20.8 billion) in 2023, according to figures from the EU statistics agency. During the same period, the EU imported €9.7 billion worth of electric vehicles from China. China represents approximately 30% of sales for German carmakers.
Germany, the largest exporter of vehicles with engines of 2.5 liters or above, has exported $1.2 billion worth of such vehicles to China since the start of this year, according to Chinese customs data.
The EU&#8217;s decision to impose anti-subsidy duties on Chinese EVs in June has sparked a series of responses from China. The country has vowed to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39291257/china-vows-to-firmly-safeguard-interests-against-new-eu-tariffs-as-ev-makers-experts-give-mixed-reac">safeguard its interests</a> and take all necessary steps to defend its rights. The move is seen as a response to China&#8217;s &#8220;unfair&#8221; use of state support for its EV manufacturers.
These new tariffs could <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/06/39306681/fresh-eu-tariffs-could-slow-down-tesla-chinese-rivals-but-warren-buffett-backed-byd-can-profitably-e">potentially slow down</a> Chinese automakers, but companies like Warren Buffet-backed BYD are expected to remain competitive. However, a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/06/39311054/bain-partner-warns-chinese-ev-makers-price-wars-abroad-could-jeopardize-product-quality-and-brand-re">Bain &amp; Co. partner has cautioned</a> that the ongoing price wars among Chinese EV manufacturers in overseas markets could potentially raise doubts about the quality of their products.

Taiwan Semi and Foxconn Guide Global Supply Chain Shifts, Attract Key Industry Players

The European Commission has given the green light to a €2 billion Italian <a href="https://ec.europa.eu/commission/presscorner/detail/en/ip_24_2994" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">initiative </a>aimed at supporting STMicroelectronics N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STM#NYSE">STM</a>) in establishing and running an integrated chip manufacturing facility in Catania, Sicily.
The facility will produce Silicon Carbide (SiC) power devices, contributing to Europe&#8217;s technological self-sufficiency and digital sovereignty as outlined in the European Chips Act.
STMicroelectronics&#8217; project, which is backed by the Italian government, aims to enhance the supply and resilience of semiconductor technologies, which are crucial for the digital and green transitions.
The new plant will manufacture high-performance SiC chips used in various applications, including electric vehicles, fast-charging stations, and renewable energy systems.
Italy has notified the Commission of its intent to support the development of ST&#8217;s Catania Campus with a direct grant of approximately €2 billion.
This investment is part of a larger €5 billion project to create a large-scale manufacturing facility for high-performance SiC chips.
The plant will process 200mm wafers into modules and devices for automotive and other industries. Full-scale operations are expected by 2032.
ST has committed to ensuring that the project benefits the entire EU semiconductor value chain, not just Italy.

The company will also prioritize orders during supply shortages, as stipulated by the European Chips Act, and avoid public service obligations imposed by third countries.
The company has applied for recognition of the Catania Campus as an integrated production facility under the European Chips Act, independent of the State aid assessment.
The European Chips Act, adopted on 8 February 2022, underscores the importance of new production facilities in safeguarding the EU&#8217;s supply chain resilience. The Commission&#8217;s approval is the third such decision, following similar measures in Italy and France.
Margrethe Vestager, Executive Vice-President in charge of competition policy, said, &#8220;The €2 billion Italian measure approved today supports a unique integrated facility for silicon carbide chips. It will strengthen the European semiconductors supply chain and ensure our access to a reliable source of power efficient chips used for example in electric vehicles and charging stations. This will support our digital and green transitions and help create high-skilled employment, while limiting possible distortions of competition.&#8221;

European Commission Backs Italian State Aid To STMicroelectronics'  Chip Plant: Details

Garmin Ltd.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRMN#NYSE">GRMN</a>) shares are trading lower after&nbsp;BofA Securities&nbsp;analyst Ronald J. Epstein&nbsp;downgraded the stock to Underperform from Neutral and cut the&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/GRMN/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target from $165 to $150</a>.
The analyst writes that in the first quarter, Garmin demonstrated the strength of its brand and the resiliency of its customers and witnessed growth across segments.&nbsp;However, the analyst worries that the momentum is decelerating, implying that the current valuation is unsustainable.&nbsp;
Epstein says that the company&#8217;s AutoOEM segment continues to ramp production and remains on track to hit the $800 million revenue target in 2025.&nbsp;
The analyst expects the segment to reach breakeven in 4Q24 and sees an upside risk as Garmin&#8217;s domain controllers will be spread across all Bayerische Motoren Werke AG (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BMWYY#OTC">BMWYY</a>) BMW&#8216;s fleets with the iDrive infotainment systems. 
The rapidly growing Auto contribution to total revenues is expected to pose a headwind to company margins, and the analyst projects revenue of $635 million at an operating margin of (4.3%). Epstein estimates EPS of $5.66 in FY24 and $6.50 in FY25.
This month, Garmin reported&nbsp;first-quarter&nbsp;revenue increase of 20%&nbsp;to $1.38 billion, surpassing estimates;&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/24/05/38552073/garmins-advanced-wearables-are-in-demand-surprises-with-q1-profit-growth" rel="noreferrer noopener">proforma EPS of $1.42 beat the consensus</a>.
Garmin stock gained 55% in the last 12 months.&nbsp;Investors can gain exposure to the stock via&nbsp;Global X&nbsp;Internet Of Things ETF&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SNSR#NASDAQ">SNSR</a>) and&nbsp;Procure Space&nbsp;ETF&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UFO#NASDAQ">UFO</a>).
