BUZZ-GM shines in rough year for US automakers

ReutersDec 31, 2024 2:46 PM

General Motors GM.N is set to outperform its Detroit peers Ford Motor F.N and Chrysler-parent Stellantis STLAM.MI in 2024

Ford down 17.77%, U.S.-listed shares of Stellantis down ~44%, while General Motors GM.N up ~49% YTD

Ford has struggled with quality concerns, while Stellantis witnessed lower sales and revenue in North America

This also comes at a time when legacy automakers are not making enough from their electrified ventures amid stiff competition from Chinese companies pushing out cheaper models

GM's stronger performance this year was fueled in part by resilient demand for its gas-powered SUVs

GM shares up ~0.7% at the open on Tuesday, the last trading day of 2024. Ford relatively flat, while U.S.- listed shares of Stellantis up ~0.5%
