Where AEVA is headed

By the back half of 2027, Aeva stops being a LiDAR story and starts being a perception sensor company with two distinct revenue legs that don't depend on each other. The automotive leg runs on the Daimler Truck program ramping toward series production, plus the passenger vehicle wins management has been teasing through 2025 and 2026. The industrial leg, which barely registered on the income statement two years ago, is the one worth watching. Aeva Eve1 displacement sensors are slotting into semiconductor metrology and precision manufacturing at gross margins that look nothing like the brutal automotive economics, and the SICK partnership gives them a distribution arm into European factory automation they could never have built alone.
