  • President Donald Trump's administration on Wednesday evening announced tariffs of 25% on all cars not made in the U.S. and certain automotive parts, but appeared to omit levies on some car parts.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's announcement of imposing a 25% tariff on finished cars and some auto parts, a move that could significantly impact the automotive industry. This policy, if implemented, would affect both domestic and foreign manufacturers, potentially increasing costs for consumers and possibly leading to trade retaliations from other countries. The tariffs aim to protect U.S. auto manufacturers from what Trump describes as unfair trade practices, but industry experts warn it could disrupt global supply chains, increase vehicle prices, and reduce market competitiveness. The article also mentions the potential for job losses in the auto sector due to decreased demand and the complexities of renegotiating trade deals.
