Sorry to quote Hennessey and on top of it spelt it wrong as well.
Hennessey is not an auto manufacturer.

Year 2020 (Q1 2020)

Tesla may have become the world’s most valuable carmaker, but it’s still far from the most profitable - Ferrari.





Q1 2020 proved to be a disaster for the majority of OEMs, but there were 3 exceptions: Tesla , Subaru and BMW.







Revenue:

414 BILLION EURO IN REVENUE:

Revenue of the 27* most important OEMs totaled 413.6 billion euro, down by 8%. The drop was lower than the unit sales decrease indicating that the automakers increased prices or reduced incentives, rebates, in order to protect revenues.



Operational Profits:



Sales:Q1 2020

Holy Tata. What is going so wrong for them to operate on such margins.

No wonder they were trying to spin the automotive division as a separate entity.

Another stroke of bad luck for them, they were in advanced stages of talks to sell 30% stake to a State owned Chinese Car Corp (Cherry Auto). But now that has hit road blocks as well.

Very interesting statistics! Any insights on how did Subaru & BMW manage growth in Q1? Subaru has even grown in sales!

Ferrari's brand & pricing power is a big anomaly to this otherwise low margin industry. Their stock price has come back to almost pre-covid levels

2024:

The analysis carried out by an expert in the automotive industry such as JATO Dynamics, reveals very interesting conclusions after analyzing the finances of the ten most and least profitable brands in the world.


The Prancing Horse takes the cake, because although together they sold less - about 50,000 units - they earned much more.
That prices have risen is an undeniable reality, and if not, tell Ferrari. The Italians put in no less than 1,880 million euros, after the taxes of a turnover of 6,680 million disappeared. The analyst's accounts point to a really brutal margin, of no less than 136,671 euros per car! Brutal, and even more so if we consider that a year earlier it was 117,927 euros, which represents an increase of 16%.

Suzuki is the third most profitable manufacturer
However, in the real world where people drive normal cars, the best performance was Suzuki's. Its operating margin (the percentage of sales the company earns after paying operating expenses) increased from 8.48% in 2023 to 10.30% in 2024. While this may seem like a small amount, it was the highest increase among the 30 companies analyzed.

This Japanese manufacturer was the third most profitable manufacturer in the world, behind only two supercar manufacturers: Ferrari and Porsche. Another example of how a car manufacturer can be successful even without producing luxury cars.






*Excludes Chinese automakers who do not publish their brand results, and Indian manufacturers.
