Investment direct means investing in companies that produce autonomous vehicles, such as Tesla, Google, and other major automotive companies that operate in the field of autonomous vehicles. These companies, by striving to develop and improve autonomous vehicle technology, seek to attract investors. Investment in these companies can be through purchasing stocks, buying option tickets, direct investment in autonomous vehicle projects, or other investment methods.

Indirect investment means investing in companies that produce the raw materials and equipment needed to build autonomous vehicles. For example, battery and software companies, radar and sensor equipment manufacturers, and companies that produce vehicle chassis and bodies. Investment in these companies can be done through direct investment or through the capital market.

Since the autonomous vehicle industry is growing and developing, investment in this industry may be attractive as an investment opportunity for investors. However, as we said earlier, trying to predict the performance and profitability of automotive companies may face challenges due to technical and economic limitations in the development and production of autonomous vehicles. For this reason, investors should invest in the autonomous vehicle industry by choosing companies with optimal approaches and strategies.

Furthermore, considering the economic sanctions against some automotive companies and their negative impacts on the technological development and competitive capabilities of these companies, investors must carefully analyze which companies offer the best opportunities for investment in the autonomous vehicle industry.

Also, it should be noted that the autonomous vehicle industry is one of the large and profitable industries in the world, but at the same time, it faces high competition. For example, companies like Tesla and Faraday are prominent in the autonomous vehicle industry and have very fierce competition with other major automotive companies like Ford and General Motors.

In general, investment in the autonomous vehicle industry can be considered a profitable opportunity for investors, but to select the best companies for investment, careful analysis of the companies' performance and their approaches in developing autonomous vehicle technology must be conducted.

New autonomous vehicle startups have recently become an attractive area for investment. Many investors have focused on this area and by providing facilities and investment, have helped new automotive startups to pursue growth and development. In this regard, the following statistics show how new automotive startups have progressed:

• According to a CB Insights report in 2021, Tesla, the world's leading autonomous vehicle company, with a market value of $619 billion, is known as a startup that has managed to become one of the largest automotive companies in the world over the years.
