##plugins.themes.academic_pro.article.main##
Abstract
Penelitian ini menguji hubungan antara likuiditas, leverage, dan pemanfaatan aset terhadap profitabilitas perusahaan otomotif dan komponen yang terdaftar di Indonesia selama periode 2021–2025. Dengan menggunakan 41 observasi perusahaan-tahun yang lengkap dari sembilan perusahaan, penelitian ini menerapkan metode partial least squares structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM), yang dilengkapi dengan regresi panel dan uji ketahanan (*robustness tests*). Temuan menunjukkan bahwa efisiensi aset memiliki hubungan positif terkuat dengan profitabilitas, sementara hubungan untuk likuiditas dan leverage tidak didukung secara konsisten oleh inferensi bootstrap pada tingkat perusahaan. Model ini menjelaskan 57,59% dari variasi yang teramati pada return on assets (ROA). Hasil penelitian ini menegaskan pentingnya pemanfaatan aset secara produktif, sekaligus mencatat bahwa hubungan yang diestimasi tersebut tidak menyiratkan adanya hubungan kausal terhadap peralihan ke kendaraan listrik.
