Title. Just something I got curious about, and thought people here would know the answer :)

    Based on how the question is worded, the answer is probably a niche carmaker like Lotus or Jaguar (canceling all vehicles and going 100% electric in 2025).

    Hyundai / Kia with the E-GMP platform is likely the current leader in this category. Volvo is strong as well. VW / Audi is likely 3rd, but they have some catching up to do. I feel like they’ll be equally competitive within 5 years or so with the ID platform.

    Hyundai and Kia are doing good without trying that hard actually. Mercedes and BMW are doing much but don’t talk about it that much. While BMW seems to be trying to delay it as much as possible and barely building any EV based platforms, their sales (in Germany at least) and their efforts are pretty good. Otherwise clearly Volvo but they are too connected to Chinese manufacturers so it doesn’t count as much since they get their platforms from them

    Volkswagen, Ford, Chevy, Mercedes, Hyundai+Kia, and BMW. The Germans know something

    None. All legacy automakers are still vastly skewed towards making ICEs.They make about as many as they must in order not to pay fines for CO2 fleet emissions.

    I think Mercedes deserves a lot more of a mention than I’m seeing in the responses thus far. They have multiple EVs for sale now, the quality of product outside of the exterior design is very good, and they have every thing from a $55k EV to a $120k EV. They’ve also been aggressive in their EV advertising and with the charging network infrastructure they are building.

    To me, it’s Hyundai and Mercedes at the top with Volvo / Ford right behind then.

    VW for EVs. Making their own cells.

    Toyota for hybrids. Really have their whole lineup and sell really competitive hybrids.

    If another billionaire decided to copy Tesla’s way of making electric cars they may be able to put legacy automakers out of business in a decade…. The writing is on the walls and GM will be the first to go bankrupt
