Toyota Motor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) retained its position as the world&#8217;s best-selling automaker in 2024 after reporting 10.8 million sales, marking a dip of 4% from a year ago. 
What Happened: The dip in sales, the company said, was spurred by a near 20% fall in sales within its home ground of Japan. Domestic vehicle sales, it said, were affected by certification issues and suspension of production of the Prius. 
The sales numbers include those of the company&#8217;s Lexus brand as well as its subsidiaries Daihatsu and Hino. Daihatsu reported sales of 536,588 units worldwide in 2024 while Hino reported sales of 125,556 units. 
German automaker Volkswagen Group, in comparison, sold only about 9 million vehicles last year.
Toyota Trails Behind Tesla In EV Sales: Despite retaining its position as the top-selling automaker globally for five straight years, Toyota&#8217;s electrified vehicle sales amounted to just 4.5 million vehicles in 2024. Electrified vehicles refer collectively to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/01/42809131/toyota-overtakes-ford-gm-in-ev-sales-in-us-thanks-to-its-hybrid-vehicle-lineup">hybrid, plug-hybrid</a>, battery-powered, mild hybrid, and fuel-cell electric vehicles. 
The company sold only 139,892 battery electric vehicles or pure electric vehicles throughout the year, lower than American EV giant Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) or Chinese EV maker BYD Co. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDF#OTC">BYDDF</a>).
Tesla delivered nearly<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42780142/chinese-player-byd-overtakes-tesla-yet-again-as-worlds-biggest-ev-seller-in-q4"> 1.79 million BEVs in 2024</a> while BYD delivered 1.76 million pure electric vehicles.

Why It Matters: Following the U.S. presidential election on Nov. 5, Tesla shares experienced a remarkable surge, climbing 58.32% according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro</a>. This growth far exceeded the 6.01% gain seen by the Invesco QQQ Trust ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QQQ#NASDAQ">QQQ</a>), which tracks the Nasdaq 100 index.
Although Tesla has a history of missing revenue estimates, which has happened in four of the last five quarters and six of the last ten quarters, this post-election surge has significantly improved the investment picture, turning a period of mixed performance into a highly profitable one for Tesla shareholders.

Also, the automaker&#8217;s fourth-quarter deliveries reached a record 495,570 vehicles, with production at 459,445.

Elon Musk's Tesla Is Over 4X More Expensive Than Industry Average Despite Weak Delivery Volumes In 2024

WIIM

Shares of auto stocks are trading higher after President Trump revoked Biden's EV mandate.

Toyota Motor's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) short percent of float has risen 40.0% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 881 thousand shares sold short, which is 0.07% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 1.73 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock/">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Toyota Motor Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1737058510_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Toyota Motor has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Toyota Motor's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Toyota Motor's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.17%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze/">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Looking Into Toyota Motor's Recent Short Interest

Hino Motors, a subsidiary of Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), has reached a settlement with the U.S. Justice Department and other federal agencies<a href="https://www.justice.gov/opa/pr/hino-motors-toyota-subsidiary-agrees-plead-guilty-and-pay-over-16b-resolve-emissions-fraud"> regarding emissions testing fraud</a>. 
The company has agreed to pay over $1.6 billion to resolve allegations of fraudulent engine emissions testing and illegal engine imports. 
The agreement addresses violations that allowed the company to improperly import over 110,000 diesel engines into the U.S. between 2010 and 2022. 
The settlement includes both criminal and civil resolutions, with Hino Motors pleading guilty to criminal conspiracy charges.
The arrangement, which is still subject to approval by the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan, also involves Hino's agreement to pay penalties and implement a series of corrective measures. 
According to the Justice Department, the company falsified engine certification data to bypass regulatory requirements, resulting in harmful air pollution. 
The agencies involved include Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), FBI, Customs and Border Protection (CBP), Department of Transportation's Office of Inspector General (DOT-OIG), National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), and State of California.
The settlement includes a $521.76 million criminal fine, along with a $525 million civil penalty for Hino. In addition, the company must contribute $155 million to a mitigation program aimed at addressing the excess emissions resulting from the violations.
This initiative will replace older, less efficient marine and locomotive engines across 49 states, reducing nitrogen oxide (NOx) emissions by over 41,000 tons. 
These efforts are expected to have the same impact as removing 110,000 heavy-duty trucks from U.S. highways.
Hino's actions between 2010 and 2019, including manipulating emissions data, caused significant environmental harm.
Additionally, a recall program will ensure that non-compliant engines from 2017-2019 meet regulatory standards.
Price Action: TM shares are trading lower by 1.42% at $182.22 in premarket at last check Thursday.

Toyota Subsidiary Agrees To $1.6B Settlement Over Emission Data Fraud

Shares of auto companies are trading lower amid overall market weakness due to a rise in yields.

JPMorgan shifted gears on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/mobility">air mobility stocks</a> Archer Aviation Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ACHR#NYSE">ACHR</a>) and Joby Aviation Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JOBY#NYSE">JOBY</a>), downgrading them despite strong sector enthusiasm.
Analyst Bill Peterson adjusted Archer Aviation stock to a Neutral rating and Joby Aviation stock to Underweight, noting their significant market gains surged past what fundamentals justify.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Market Enthusiasm Outpaces Fundamentals</h1>
Peterson highlighted that Archer and Joby have outperformed the Clean Tech sector, gaining 145% and 86%, respectively, over the past six months. This rise correlates with speculative inflows and market movements aligned with Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Rocket Lab USA Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RKLB#NASDAQ">RKLB</a>). &#8220;These companies are trading as if regulatory hurdles have already been cleared,&#8221; Peterson stated, warning that elevated valuations could retreat as regulatory challenges persist.

<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Certification Challenges Continue</h1>
Despite potential regulatory possibly easing under the upcoming Trump administration, ongoing safety testing and certification remain hurdles. Peterson sees <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/12/42464770/whats-going-on-with-archer-aviation-stock-today">Archer&#8217;s partnership with defense tech company Anduril</a> as promising but believes its immediate valuation upside is capped.
He assigned a $9 price target, reflecting incremental earnings potential from its defense ventures.
Similarly, while Joby&#8217;s leadership in for-credit testing and partnerships,<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42169194/joby-gets-toyotas-500m-dollar-lift-evtol-pioneer-making-new-highs"> such as with </a><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/24/11/42169194/joby-gets-toyotas-500m-dollar-lift-evtol-pioneer-making-new-highs">Toyota Motor Corp</a> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), indicate future growth, Peterson remains cautious.
The raised price target of $6 still implies downside risk due to certification uncertainties and market volatility.
<h1 class="wp-block-heading">Balancing Growth Potential, Risks</h1>
Peterson anticipates potential capital raises to fund commercialization efforts for both companies. 
&#8220;Investors must tread carefully,&#8221; he warned, suggesting that high short interest could lead to rapid price declines despite operational progress. 
As Archer and Joby push toward commercialization, the analyst sees significant long-term potential but remains wary of near-term risks tied to market enthusiasm outpacing operational milestones.

eVTOL Market Soars Too High? Analyst Gives Archer, Joby Downgrades

Companies in California and across the United States are pitching in to help consumers dealing with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42899953/five-dead-in-los-angeles-wildfires-utilities-face-scrutiny">wildfires in the state.</a>
What Happened: Wildfires in California have forced thousands of people to be evacuated from their homes as wildfires led to power outages and damaged properties, marking one of the potentially highest costing events in state history for the insurance industry.
Companies are pitching in to help consumers by delaying payments, offering free services and providing necessities like places to stay and food.
Here's a look at a portion of the companies offering help:

Japanese Chipmaker Rapidus Sets Sight on Broadcom to Emulate Taiwan Semiconductor's Market Dominance

BofA Securities analyst Justin Post maintained a Buy rating on Uber Technologies Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UBER#NYSE">UBER</a>) with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/UBER/analyst-ratings" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">price target of $96</a> after the ride-hailing giant announced a partnership with NVDIA Corp (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NVDA#NASDAQ">NVDA</a>) to collaborate on <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/trading-ideas/movers/25/01/42839556/uber-and-nvidia-partner-on-ai-technology-for-autonomous-cars" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">autonomous vehicle enablement</a>.
<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="750" height="650" src="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/08111853/newplot-2.png" alt="" class="wp-image-724422" srcset="https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/08111853/newplot-2.png 750w,https://editorial-assets.benzinga.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/01/08111853/newplot-2-300x260.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px" /></figure>
The price target reflects a 20 times 2026E FCF multiple, which Post deems reasonable versus the FANG average of 28 times, given Uber&#8217;s strong 2026E EBITDA growth outlook of 28% versus the FANG average of 17%.
The collaboration is focusing on supporting the development of AI-powered autonomous driving (AVs), pairing Uber&#8217;s dataset of millions of daily trips with Nvidia&#8217;s new Cosmos platform (first announced at CES) and Nvidia DGX Cloud.
Cosmos is Nvidia&#8217;s new generative AI platform. It focuses on &#8220;physical AI systems,&#8221; creating synthetic environments and eliminating cost barriers to developing advanced robotics.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/01/42859391/uber-and-lyft-adapt-robotaxi-strategy-to-compete-in-tesla-and-waymos-market" rel="noreferrer noopener">Uber and Lyft Adapt Robotaxi Strategy to Compete in Tesla and Waymo&#8217;s Space</a>
Nvidia DGX Cloud offers a fully managed AI platform preconfigured with advanced Nvidia architecture and software on &#8220;an open platform&#8221; for AI model development across multi-cloud environments.
Uber will likely commit significant resources, given the importance of this strategy to the business.
Nvidia chief Jensen Huang noted at CES that Cosmos is the world&#8217;s first foundational model tailored explicitly for &#8220;Physical AI.&#8221; He said autonomous vehicles will be the first multi-trillion-dollar robotics industry. He announced a partnership with Toyota, with Toyota&#8217;s next-gen vehicles using Nvidia&#8217;s Drive AGX Orin supercomputers and operating system DriveOS for real-time AI processing and integration of advanced driving and cockpit features. 
He also announced a next-gen chip tailored for AVs called &#8220;Drive Thor,&#8221; an advancement from its prior &#8220;Drive Orin&#8221; chip, enabling auto OEMs to more efficiently consolidate multiple functions in a single system, reducing overall system cost.
The variety of AV partnerships and products announced at CES underscores Post&#8217;s thesis that multiple auto OEMs will integrate Level 4 self-driving technology long term, providing Uber with multiple available partners in AV ridesharing, including Uber, Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Aurora Innovation, Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AUR#NASDAQ">AUR</a>) with its self-driving trucks, and automotive supplier Continental. With numerous new AV competitors — Alphabet Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) Waymo, Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>), Amazon.com Inc.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) Zoox — Post noted auto OEMs will increasingly focus on integrating Level 4 autonomy.
For Uber, providing data and ride imaging/video in an increasingly open-sourced manner could help auto OEMs reach Level 4 more quickly and effectively reduce the likelihood of a &#8220;Walled Garden&#8221; outcome for only one OEM. Uber&#8217;s data could also have an advantage in addressing the ridesharing use case, with higher-quality data on the most essential trips and routes for ride-hailing. 
Uber is one of Post&#8217;s top picks for 2025.
UBER Price Action: Uber stock is down by 2.72% at $64.35 at publication Wednesday.
