The U.S. auto industry sold nearly ************* cars in 2024. That year, total car and light truck sales were approximately ************ in the United States. U.S. vehicle sales peaked in 2016 at roughly ************ units. Pandemic impact The COVID-19 pandemic deeply impacted the U.S. automotive market, accelerating the global automotive semiconductor shortage and leading to a drop in demand during the first months of 2020. However, as demand rebounded, new vehicle supply could not keep up with the market. U.S. inventory-to-sales ratio dropped to its lowest point in February 2022, as Russia's war on Ukraine lead to gasoline price hikes. During that same period, inflation also impacted new and used car prices, pricing many U.S. consumers out of a market with increasingly lower car stocks. Focus on fuel economy The U.S. auto industry had one of its worst years in 1982 when customers were beginning to feel the effects of the 1973 oil crisis and the energy crisis of 1979. Since light trucks would often be considered less fuel-efficient, cars accounted for about ** percent of light vehicle sales back then. Thanks to improved fuel economy for light trucks and cheaper gas prices, this picture had completely changed in 2020. That year, prices for Brent oil dropped to just over ** U.S. dollars per barrel. The decline occurred in tandem with lower gasoline prices, which came to about **** U.S. dollars per gallon in 2020 - and cars only accounted for less than one-fourth of light vehicle sales that year. Four years on, prices are dropping again, after being the highest on record since 1990 in 2022.

SpaceKnow uses satellite (SAR) data to capture activity in electric vehicles and automotive factories.

Data is updated daily, has an average lag of 4-6 days, and history back to 2017.

The insights provide you with level and change data that monitors the area which is covered with assembled light vehicles in square meters.

We offer 3 delivery options: CSV, API, and Insights Dashboard

Available companies Rivian (NASDAQ: RIVN) for employee parking, logistics, logistic centers, product distribution & product in the US. (See use-case write up on page 4) TESLA (NASDAQ: TSLA) indices for product, logistics & employee parking for Fremont, Nevada, Shanghai, Texas, Berlin, and Global level Lucid Motors (NASDAQ: LCID) for employee parking, logistics & product in US

Why get SpaceKnow's EV datasets?

Monitor the company’s business activity: Near-real-time insights into the business activities of Rivian allow users to better understand and anticipate the company’s performance.

Assess Risk: Use satellite activity data to assess the risks associated with investing in the company.

Types of Indices Available Continuous Feed Index (CFI) is a daily aggregation of the area of metallic objects in square meters. There are two types of CFI indices. The first one is CFI-R which gives you level data, so it shows how many square meters are covered by metallic objects (for example assembled cars). The second one is CFI-S which gives you change data, so it shows you how many square meters have changed within the locations between two consecutive satellite images.

How to interpret the data SpaceKnow indices can be compared with the related economic indicators or KPIs. If the economic indicator is in monthly terms, perform a 30-day rolling sum and pick the last day of the month to compare with the economic indicator. Each data point will reflect approximately the sum of the month. If the economic indicator is in quarterly terms, perform a 90-day rolling sum and pick the last day of the 90-day to compare with the economic indicator. Each data point will reflect approximately the sum of the quarter.

Product index This index monitors the area covered by manufactured cars. The larger the area covered by the assembled cars, the larger and faster the production of a particular facility. The index rises as production increases.

Product distribution index This index monitors the area covered by assembled cars that are ready for distribution. The index covers locations in the Rivian factory. The distribution is done via trucks and trains.

Employee parking index Like the previous index, this one indicates the area covered by cars, but those that belong to factory employees. This index is a good indicator of factory construction, closures, and capacity utilization. The index rises as more employees work in the factory.

Logistics index The index monitors the movement of materials supply trucks in particular car factories.

Logistics Centers index The index monitors the movement of supply trucks in warehouses.

Where the data comes from: SpaceKnow brings you information advantages by applying machine learning and AI algorithms to synthetic aperture radar and optical satellite imagery. The company’s infrastructure searches and downloads new imagery every day, and the computations of the data take place within less than 24 hours.

In contrast to traditional economic data, which are released in monthly and quarterly terms, SpaceKnow data is high-frequency and available daily. It is possible to observe the latest movements in the EV industry with just a 4-6 day lag, on average.

The EV data help you to estimate the performance of the EV sector and the business activity of the selected companies.

The backbone of SpaceKnow’s high-quality data is the locations from which data is extracted. All locations are thoroughly researched and validated by an in-house team of annotators and data analysts.

Each individual location is precisely defined so that the resulting data does not contain noise such as surrounding traffic or changing vegetation with the season.

We use radar imagery and our own algorithms, so the final indices are not devalued by weather conditions such as rain or heavy clouds.

Use Case - Rivian:

SpaceKnow uses the quarterly production and delivery data of Rivian as a benchmark. Rivian targeted to produce 25,000 cars in 2022. To achieve this target, the company had to increase production by 45% by producing 10,683 cars in Q4. However the production was 10,020 and the target was slightly missed by reaching total production of 24,337 cars for FY22.

SpaceKnow indices help us to observe the company’s operations, and we are able to monitor if the company is set to meet its forecasts or not. We deliver five different indices for Rivian, and these indices observe logistic centers, employee parking lot, logistics, product, and prod...
