Magna divests Lighting and Rooftop units to focus on higher-margin segments

Magna International has agreed to sell its Lighting and Rooftop Systems businesses through three separate transactions, expected to close in the second half of 2026. The divestitures aim to refocus the company on areas aligned with its long-term growth and margin objectives, reshaping its Power & Vision segment. The company's shares recently closed at CA$80.02 on the TSX, trading approximately 22% below the analyst consensus target of CA$97.60. Over the past year, the stock has returned 86.6%, though it has declined 20.3% over five years. Magna currently operates with a group profit margin of approximately 2.0%. Investors will be monitoring how the portfolio restructuring affects margins and earnings stability once the transactions complete.

GAC Aion UT starts production at Magna Steyr in Austria.

GAC Aion UT starts production at Magna Steyr in Austria. Contract manufacturer Magna Steyr has begun production of the compact electric vehicle GAC Aion UT. This model is the second electric series produced in Graz by GAC, following the Aion V. For the Chinese OEM, this step represents further localization of production in Europe. By Cora Werwitzke 26.03.2026 - 10:39 Magna Steyr only began producing the mid-size SUV GAC Aion V in Graz last November. Just five months later, the smaller Aion UT has followed suit. This development was reported by the portal CN EV Post, citing official statements from Magna. The collaboration stems from a comprehensive cooperation agreement signed between GAC and Magna in November 2025, which at the time already extended beyond the Aion V. The Aion UT is a battery-electric compact car currently manufactured in China and Thailand. It has been available in its home market since March 2025. Earlier this month, the model made its debut at the Motion Expo automotive trade fair in Graz, Austria. Read its test drive review here. It had already become clear that the model would also be produced at Magna Steyr. In December 2025, an official GAC announcement revealed that the company would use LFP batteries from Farasis Energy for its European models. The Aion UT was mentioned alongside the Aion V as a target model for the battery supply, indirectly confirming that the battery-electric compact car would also be built locally in Europe. The Farasis battery cells are large-format pouch cells with lithium iron phosphate (LFP) chemistry. According to the partners, the total order capacity exceeds 10 GWh, which, in purely mathematical terms, is sufficient for around 100,000 electric vehicles with 100 kWh batteries. However, the exact size and capacity of the batteries remain unknown. Meanwhile, Magna's Austrian plant is increasingly becoming a production hub for Chinese automakers expanding into Europe. Since September, the Magna facility has also been assembling the Xpeng G6 and G9 models. By producing vehicles in Europe, Chinese manufacturers avoid the EU's additional tariffs, which would otherwise apply to electric cars imported from China into the European Union. Importantly, Magna is responsible solely for vehicle production, while distribution of GAC's electric vehicles is handled by the Chinese company itself. "GAC plans to expand into further European markets through new partnerships as well as service and distribution networks," it was stated in December. However, the Canadian group did not specify which markets are being targeted or what production capacities GAC has secured at Magna. The Magna vehicle plant in Graz operates mixed production lines, where internal combustion engine vehicles, hybrids, and electric cars are manufactured side by side. Well-known electric models from the plant include the Jaguar I-Pace and, briefly, the Fisker Ocean (both discontinued), as well as the current Mercedes G-Class with EQ technology and the two Xpeng models. On the internal combustion engine side, the BMW Z4 and Toyota Supra remain in production. cnevpost.com 0 comments. about "GAC Aion UT starts production at Magna Steyr in Austria" Your email address will not be published.

Magna International shares slip 19% in one month amid valuation debate at $55

Magna International has raised CA$120 million in new funding, though shares have weakened recently, falling 1.8% in the latest trading session and 19.2% over the past month. The company currently trades at CA$75.59 per share with a market capitalisation reflecting its CA$42.01 billion in revenue and CA$829 million in net income. Despite short-term pressure, the company has delivered a 50.69% total shareholder return over one year. Analysts suggest the stock is trading 15.7% below its fair value estimate of CA$89.71, with expected margin expansion from operational improvements and restructuring over the next two years. Key risks include weaker vehicle production in major markets and ongoing inflation and labour cost pressures that could impact margins.

Bank of America reinstates Magna International with $80 price target on automaker supplier optimism

Bank of America reinstated coverage of Magna International Inc. with a Buy rating and an $80 price target on 4 March. The firm cited expectations for the North American automotive sector to outperform this year, noting that a regulatory environment potentially favouring internal combustion engine vehicles could benefit suppliers like Magna. Magna reported fourth-quarter sales of $10.8 billion, up 2% year over year. Adjusted EBIT margin expanded by 100 basis points to 7.5%, whilst adjusted earnings per share rose 29% to $2.18.

The Aurora, Ontario-based company is one of the world's largest independent automotive suppliers.
