Ford Motor United States’ automotive industry has shown a promising rise during the last two years. Despite a 6% decrease in stocks in 2016, market analysts predict that its shares will rise by 2% in 2017. Even though the rise is not exciting enough, it is enough to make Ford Motor pay a quarterly dividend of 15% per share.

General Motors It is one of the few automotive companies that posses yields above 4%. Dividends that the company paid in 2016 accounted for only 24.1% of its profits.
