The global autonomous vehicle (AV) market is growing. According to the Autonomous Vehicle Industry Association (AVIA), autonomous vehicles have logged over 70 million miles on public roads as of late 2024. That's a 59% increase since the association last reported in July 2023.
However, depending on where you live, AVs may still seem like more science fiction than innovation. The key reason for this, according to industry analysts and executives, is the lack of a regulatory framework. Some states, like California and Texas, are well into the AV transition, while other states have little to no exposure.
But that could be changing. In November 2024, the AV industry got a jolt as the incoming Trump administration acknowledged that it would prioritize a federal regulatory framework for autonomous vehicles. In their State of AV 2024 report, the AIVA cited CEOs as saying that increased engagement by policy makers was critical for the success of the industry.
For investors, this means it could be a great time to invest in autonomous vehicle stocks. In this special presentation, we are looking at seven options for those who want to gain exposure in this sector.
