Global automakers face 65 billion dollar hit as EV demand slows
Carmakers worldwide are confronting a 65 billion dollar financial impact as consumer enthusiasm for electric vehicles weakens, according to Seeking Alpha. The report highlights a broader slowdown in EV adoption that is forcing manufacturers to reassess production and investment plans. The figures reflect write downs, reduced forecasts and strategic shifts across the industry.
Why it matters
A 65 billion dollar hit to automakers signals potential delays or cuts in EV rollout schedules, which could slow the expansion of charging infrastructure projects that depend on vehicle volume forecasts. Procurement teams and CPOs should monitor whether OEMs scale back co investment in public charging networks or renegotiate site development timelines.
