You can't deny that EVs are gaining huge popularity, whether or not you feel they are a solution to the problem. If you are here for the EV stocks, you might have probably identified the potential of the electric vehicle industry.
There are not too many options for EV stocks in Canada because most EV makers are in the United States. However, whatever limited EV stock options are available in the country, they seem to have the potential to provide higher returns to investors in future.
Let's look at two Canadian EV stocks in this article:
Magna International Inc. (TSX:MG)
It is a car components-based company in Canada and offers EV exposure apart from manufacturing critical parts for automakers. At 10 AM EST, the MG stock was up by two per cent and trading at C$ 75.61 per share.
Magna announced in May that it is partnering with BlackBerry to work on building an advanced driver assistance system. Meanwhile, it has also started the production of hybrid transverse transmission for BMW.
In Q1 2022, Magna's sales amounted to US$ 9.6 billion, and the net income attributable to the company was US$ 364 million. The MG stock pays frequent dividends, and in May, the company distributed a quarterly dividend of US$ 0.45 per unit.
Martinrea International Inc. (TSX:MRE)

The collaboration was announced in April, and the two companies said they would work together to build graphene-enhanced EV batteries. Batteries are one of the most crucial EV components because they influence how far a car can travel.
Matinrea's total sales were C$ 1,155 million in the first quarter of this year, up by 15.8 per cent year-over-year (YoY). Also, the company declared a quarterly cash dividend of C$ 0.05 per unit.
