Car companies publish their profits, and they’re well under 20%
edit: The official SEC fllings are a little dense for me, but Ford’s investor slides for 2026 Q1 show an 8.1% EBIT margin. That includes all corporate overhead as well though. If you’re talking vehicle manufacture price vs sell price, that will be higher
Yeah, but then the car makers profit margin would be 99% instead of 100%. Gotta sell us deregulated stuff so they can make big bucks
