Already, many major brands have <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.reuters.com/article/us-autos-electric-yearend-idUSKBN28V0HQ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">followed</a> in the company’s tracks, announcing their own ambitious plans to add more EVs to their vehicle line-ups. </p> <p>Here’s how a selection of car manufacturers are embracing the electric future:</p> <h4>Toyota: Ranked #2</h4> <p>The second-most valuable car manufacturer in the world, Toyota is steadily <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://asia.nikkei.com/Business/Automobiles/Toyota-aims-to-sell-500-000-EVs-in-2025-chasing-VW-s-3m" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">ramping up</a> its EV output. In 2020, it produced 10,000 EVs and plans to increase this to 30,000 in 2021. </p> <p>Through this gradual increase, the company hopes to hit an expected target of <strong>500,000 EVs</strong> by 2025. Toyota also aims to debut 10 new models internationally to achieve this goal.</p> <h4>Volkswagen: Ranked #3</h4> <p>By 2025, Volkswagen plans to invest <strong>$86 billion</strong> into digital and EV technologies. Considering the car manufacturer generates the most gross <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.visualcapitalist.com/visualized-how-much-revenue-automakers-generate-every-second/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">revenue per second</a> of all automakers, it’s no wonder Volkswagen is looking to the future in order to keep such numbers up.</p> <p>The company is also well-positioned to ride the wave of a potential consumer shift towards EVs in Europe. In response to the region’s strict emissions targets, Volkswagen upped its planned sales proportions for European hybrid and EV sales from <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.reuters.com/article/volkswagen-strategy-idUSKBN27T24O" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">40% to 60%</a> by 2030.</p> <h4>BYD and Nio: Ranked #4-5</h4> <p>China jumped on the electric bandwagon early. Eager to make its mark as a global leader in the emerging technology of lithium ion batteries (an essential component of any EV), the Chinese government <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/26/china-races-to-build-its-own-tesla-as-economy-slows-subsidies-fade.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">handed out</a> billions of dollars in subsidies—fueling the growths of domestic car manufacturers BYD and Nio alike.</p> <p>BYD gained the interest and attention of its billionaire backer Warren Buffett, while Nio is China’s response to Tesla and an attempt to capture the EV market locally.</p> <h4>General Motors: Ranked #7</h4> <p>Also with a 2025 target year in mind, General Motors is investing <strong>$27 billion</strong> into electric and fully autonomous vehicles. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, too—the company also hopes to <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://media.gm.com/media/us/en/gm/news.detail.html/content/Pages/news/us/en/2020/nov/1119-electric-portfolio.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">launch</a> 30 new fully electric vehicles by the same year. </p> <p>One particular factor is giving GM confidence: its new EV battery creations.

As these competitions were usually a way for the company to show off its engineering prowess, the move was a surprising one.</p> <p>However, there’s a noble reason behind this decision. Honda is choosing instead to focus on its commitment to become <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://global.honda/newsroom/news/2020/c201002aeng.html" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">carbon neutral</a> by 2050.

detail, while also highlighting interesting case studies on how drones are used.</p> <h4>North America</h4> <p><img

in favor of commercial uses. As of December 2020, civilian drones are allowed to fly over <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2020-12-28/civilian-drone-use-in-u-s-to-get-boost-in-new-security-rules" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">populated areas</a>, a step towards fulfilling their potential in package delivery.</p> <p>Meanwhile, countries like Mexico are beginning to rely on drones to combat crime, with good results. In the city of Ensenada, a single drone’s surveillance patrol resulted in a <strong>10%</strong> drop in overall crime rates in 2018.

Now that the dust has settled, here are some key numbers behind the company’s unique business model.</p> <h2>The Last 5 Years</h2> <p>Since 2015, Airbnb has had an epic run. </p> <p>With a market cap of close to <strong>$90 billion</strong>, they are one of the largest businesses in the travel and tourism space. However, there is still plenty of room to grow: Airbnb identifies their total addressable market (TAM) to be worth $3.4 trillion.</p> <table id="tablepress-1324" class="tablepress tablepress-id-1324"> <thead> <tr class="row-1 odd"> <th class="column-1">Metric</th><th class="column-2">2015</th><th class="column-3">2016</th><th class="column-4">2017</th><th class="column-5">2018</th><th class="column-6">2019</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody class="row-hover"> <tr class="row-2 even"> <td class="column-1">Gross Booking Value ($ Billions)</td><td class="column-2">$8.1B</td><td class="column-3">$13.9B</td><td class="column-4">$21.0B</td><td class="column-5">$29.4B</td><td class="column-6">$38.0B</td> </tr> <tr class="row-3 odd"> <td class="column-1">Annual Nights & Experiences Booked (In Millions)</td><td class="column-2">72.4M</td><td class="column-3">125.7M</td><td class="column-4">185.8M</td><td class="column-5">250.3M</td><td class="column-6">326.9M</td> </tr> <tr class="row-4 even"> <td class="column-1">Revenues ($ Billions)</td><td class="column-2">$919M</td><td class="column-3">$1.6B</td><td class="column-4">$2.5B</td><td class="column-5">$3.6B</td><td class="column-6">$4.8B</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>  <p>Nights and experiences booked by customers have shot up 4.5x, from 72 million in 2015 to 326 million in 2019. At the same time, the gross dollar value of these bookings has surged from $8.1 billion to <strong>$38 billion</strong>.</p> <h2>No Shortage Of Space</h2> <p>Airbnb’s ability to scale its services is reflected by its room count, which is unmatched when compared to the hotel industry.</p> <p>In 2019, Airbnb had nearly <strong>5 million rooms</strong> available, a mammoth of a figure considering the next largest was Marriott at 1.3 million. The company is a giant thorn in the hotel industry’s side, and their room count is approximately the size of the five largest hotel chains combined.</p> <h2>A Shortage Of Profits</h2> <p>Despite a global presence and attractive numbers, the business of Airbnb is yet to be profitable.</p> <p>Airbnb has lost money every year—and the company’s cumulative losses total $2.8 billion since 2008. Not surprisingly, those losses have been exacerbated during the pandemic, a common theme for all travel and tourism stocks. Airbnb had <strong>-4 million bookings</strong> in March, and these negative bookings helped lead to a -32% decline on their top line compared to 2019. </p> <table id="tablepress-1329" class="tablepress tablepress-id-1329"> <thead> <tr class="row-1 odd"> <th class="column-1">Metric</th><th class="column-2">2015</th><th class="column-3">2016</th><th class="column-4">2017</th><th class="column-5">2018</th><th class="column-6">2019</th><th class="column-7">2020 (Q1'-Q3')</th> </tr> </thead> <tbody class="row-hover"> <tr class="row-2 even"> <td class="column-1">Revenue</td><td class="column-2">$919M</td><td class="column-3">$1.6B</td><td class="column-4">$2.5B</td><td class="column-5">$3.6B</td><td class="column-6">$4.8B</td><td class="column-7">$2.5B</td> </tr> <tr class="row-3 odd"> <td class="column-1">Net Income</td><td class="column-2">-$135M</td><td class="column-3">-$136M</td><td class="column-4">-$70M</td><td class="column-5">$-17M</td><td class="column-6">-$674M</td><td class="column-7">-$696M</td> </tr> </tbody> </table>  <p>Airbnb’s net income losses so far in fiscal 2020 (Q1-Q3) are <strong>-$696 million</strong>, the largest of any year.</p> <h2>Silver Linings</h2> <p>Airbnb has demonstrated an ability to adapt during this time of uncertainty through the introduction of digital experiences. They also made the tough decision to cut 25% of their staff this year. </p> <p>Monthly bookings and experiences have shown signs of recovery. Since the negative bookings earlier in March, figures have crept back up to the 20 million range, near pre-pandemic levels.</p> <p>A resilient segment for the business of Airbnb is short-distance travel within 50 miles of guest origin. As the pandemic expanded, people are taking vacations from their abodes by visiting less densely populated neighboring communities. </p> <h2>Another Hot IPO</h2> <p>The Airbnb IPO was one of many headline makers of 2020. When it comes to initial public offerings, markets as of late have shown no shortage of exuberance. Company shares have had the tendency to surge once hitting the secondary market, reflecting investor appetite. The Airbnb IPO experienced just this: initially intending to be priced at $56-$60 a share, in just a few weeks they traded as high as <strong>$160 per share</strong>.</p> <p>The Renaissance IPO Index, a returns tracker for U.S. public offerings, reports that IPOs are up roughly <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.renaissancecapital.com/IPO-Investing/US-IPO-ETF-Index">108%</a> in the last calendar year, experiencing one of the best years on record.</p> <p>But the aftermath of an IPO can just as likely <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.visualcapitalist.com/are-tech-ipos-worth-the-hype/">go sour</a>. Public companies are subject to more strenuous regulation relative to the private markets. And with a near <strong>$90 billion valuation</strong>, future expectations are high for Airbnb. The company will have to woo shareholders in the coming quarters to keep momentum, which likely means showing strides in an uncertain travel and tourism landscape. </p> <p style="margin-bottom: 0;"><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.visualcapitalist.com/subscribe"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1216" src="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248im_/https://www.visualcapitalist.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/02/footer-email.gif" alt="Subscribe to Visual Capitalist"/></a></p> <div id="mc4wp-form-4" class="form mc4wp-form mc4wp-form-6652 mc4wp-ajax"><form method="post" action="https://web.archive.org/web/20210125144248/https://www.visualcapitalist.com/worlds-top-car-manufacturer-by-market-cap/"><p style="margin-top:0"> <label for="mc4wp_email">Get your mind blown on a daily basis:</label> <input type="email" id="mc4wp_email" name="EMAIL" placeholder="Your email address" required/> </p> <p style="margin-bottom:0"> <input type="submit" value="Sign up for free"/> </p><textarea name="_mc4wp_required_but_not_really" style="display: none !important;"></textarea><input type="hidden" name="_mc4wp_form_ID" value="6652"/><input type="hidden" name="_mc4wp_form_instance" value="4"/><input type="hidden" name="_mc4wp_form_submit" value="1"/><input type="hidden" name="_mc4wp_form_nonce" value="aa169cd07a"/></form><span class="mc4wp-ajax-loader" style="display: none;"></span><div style="display:none !important;" class="mc4wp-alert mc4wp-success-message mc4wp-success">Thank you! <span class="mc4wp-mailchimp-error"></span></div><div style="display:none !important;" class="mc4wp-alert mc4wp-already_subscribed-message mc4wp-notice">Given email address is already subscribed, thank you! <span class="mc4wp-mailchimp-error"></span></div><div style="display:none !important;" class="mc4wp-alert mc4wp-invalid_email-message mc4wp-error">Please provide a valid email address. <span class="mc4wp-mailchimp-error"></span></div><div style="display:none !important;" class="mc4wp-alert mc4wp-invalid_captcha-message mc4wp-error">Please complete the CAPTCHA. <span class="mc4wp-mailchimp-error"></span></div><div style="display:none !important;" class="mc4wp-alert mc4wp-error-message mc4wp-error">Oops.
