Abstract: Abstract The focus of this study is on examining the ESG practices of electric vehicle manufacturers, how they navigate their responsibilities relating to environmental, social, and governance issues. Despite encountering obstacles like varying regulations and disjointed communication, this sector reveals both progress and pitfalls. Through the use of varied methodological approaches, including interviews and questionnaires with various individuals involved in the sector, the research finds an underlying inconsistency in the application of ESG due diligence. It appears many organizations struggle when engaging with stakeholders, while also grappling with compliance across different legal frameworks. In many instances, a unified approach remains elusive, and these disparate ESG practices only heighten the difficulties in trying to satisfy strict regulatory and public requirements. The analysis underscores that, generally speaking, better communication alongside clearly defined, standardized guidelines is paramount if these entities are to truly coordinate their ESG objectives effectively. Improving collaborative initiatives, it seems, might not only bolster sustainability practices within the EV industry but also offer insights that other industries could leverage to improve their broader ESG strategies. Interestingly, the results of this analysis could inform future policy debates, assisting in the revision of existing regulatory measures, while helping to define best practices which extend well beyond automotive manufacturing, potentially influencing domains such as healthcare and various other vital industries.
