Oppenheimer analyst Colin Rusch raised the firm's price target on Aptiv to $102 from $94 and keeps an Outperform rating on the shares. Coming out of CES, the firm is seeing significant innovation on synthetic data generation and training techniques along with sensor acuity and leverage from advantaged energy storage technologies.

The firm sees 2026 as setting up to be a year of technical and commercial validation in many of these end-markets, which it thinks will be followed by accelerated product cycles and scaling.
