Shares in European carmakers have risen following U.S. President Donald Trump's decision to back down on Greenland tariffs, alleviating market concerns. The pan-European automobiles and parts index is up 2.6%. Notable gains include BMW, Mercedes, and Porsche, which rose between 2.8% and 3.2%, while Volkswagen surged 5.6% after reporting strong 2025 net cash flow. Analysts suggest that federal electric vehicle subsidies in Germany and a rebound in the sector's low valuations may also contribute to the rise.
