ETF.net Research

BATTCAmplify Lithium & Battery Technology ETF

DRIVBGlobal X Autonomous & Electric Vehicles ETF

In short

BATT Most EV funds buy the carmakers. BATT buys the battery, tracking a global index of roughly 50 lithium and battery-technology companies. It has been running since 2018 and charges less than the typical fund in its category.

DRIV Most EV funds pick a lane: batteries or carmakers. DRIV buys the whole road, self-driving technology, electric vehicles, and the parts and materials underneath, in roughly 80 stocks from around the world.

Stated mandate

BATT The Fund seeks to track the EQM Lithium & Battery Technology Index before fees and expenses through passive indexing; it normally invests at least 80% of net assets in securities comprising the Index.

DRIV The fund invests in companies developing autonomous-vehicle technology, electric vehicles, and related EV components and materials.

Why people hold it

  • BATT The battery-chain purist. Where category peers like DRIV, IDRV and FDRV lean on autonomous driving and vehicle makers, BATT's index is built around lithium and battery technology itself.amplifyetfs.com
  • 0.59% a year, below the 0.68% median for EV and battery funds. On a theme with this much swing, a lower annual toll is one of the few things you control.
  • Simple plumbing: a passive 1940 Act fund that normally keeps at least 80% of net assets in the securities of the EQM Lithium & Battery Technology Index. What is in the index is what you own.amplifyetfs.com
  • Trading since 2018, so the battery theme's booms and busts are already on its tape rather than in a backtest.
  • DRIV Three layers of one theme in a single ticker: autonomous-driving technology, EV makers, and the components and materials feeding both.
  • Roughly 80 names spread across the chain, so no single carmaker steers the whole portfolio. One of the better-built baskets in its peer group.
  • Global by mandate, not US-only, so the index can reach automakers and suppliers listed outside the States.
  • Trading since 2018, with a rules-based Solactive index behind it rather than a manager's stock picks.

Worth knowing

  • BATT Cheaper doors into electrification exist: FDRV charges 0.39% and IBAT 0.47%, though each defines the theme differently.
  • About 50 stocks bolted to one supply chain. Lithium price swings or a single cell maker's bad quarter show up in the fund quickly.
  • The mandate is global, so foreign-market and currency exposure comes with it. Payouts are occasional (annual or semiannual), not an income stream.
  • DRIV The 0.68% fee sits right at the category median, but cheaper wrappers on nearby themes exist: FDRV charges 0.39% and IDRV 0.48%.
  • One industry, one capital cycle. A concentrated theme fund moves harder in both directions than a broad market index.
  • Not an income holding: distributions come once or twice a year, and trading volume is moderate rather than mega-liquid.
