Trump announces 25% tariffs on foreign-built vehicles
The HinduU.S. President Donald Trump has announced steep tariffs on auto imports and parts, provoking threats of retaliation from trading partners ahead of further promised trade levies next week. Japan's Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba said Tokyo was "considering all kinds of countermeasures", while Canada's Mark Carney branded Mr. Trump's tariffs a "direct attack" on his country's workers. But Washington's levies appeared to raise eyebrows close to home, including from Trump ally and Tesla boss Elon Musk, who said the cost impact on his firm's cars was "not trivial". The association of American Automakers said in a statement on Wednesday that Mr. Trump's tariffs must be implemented in a way that "avoids raising prices for consumers" and preserves the industry's competitiveness. The American Automotive Policy Council representing Detroit's "Big Three" automakers--Ford, General Motors and Stellantis--issued a carefully worded statement on the tariffs, saying it hoped the policy would boost US auto production.
