What is the best way to value an automotive company?

I want to know the best multiples (e.g. EV/EBITDA, EV/Rev, PE, etc) and comps (e.g. Toyota, etc) to use to value an automotive company. Also, are there any good comps (Companies) to use as comps for an automotive company that has strong technology and IP?

No idea what you mean about multiples but....

The best companies out there for cars would be Toyota Honda Chevy (only because of the VOLT) and there is a small comapny in cali that is making a 3 wheeled car that gets 100+mpg but you can onnly really get it in cali.

I think you misunderstood about 90% of the terms so its better to leave your hands of a price earnings / earnings before interest tax depreciation and amortization ratio question especially if you give that kind of car company advice.
