GCG’s Q4 2024 Automotive/AutoTech Industry Update provides an overview of the latest trends in the sector, including recent performance, valuation multiples, and the state of the middle-market M&A environment.

Key findings include the following:

• President Trump’s aim to remove Biden-era regulations related to EV incentives and sales goals will likely result in a slowing of EV adoption, while Trump’s proposed tariffs on foreign countries could result in increased vehicle prices and reworked supply chains.
• En mass, both traditional ICE vehicle and EV OEMs are delaying new vehicle programs. While this extended timeline gives suppliers the opportunity to focus on operational efficiencies, it is also squeezing supplier growth and reducing the new product pipeline.
• Though consumer rollout remains far out into the future, after a recent trough, investment into autonomous technology is returning given the incredible market opportunity ahead. Technologies related to vehicle telematics, mobility, connected vehicles, sensors, software, and various other business models are poised to benefit from the recent investment trends.
