With its tariffs, US President Trump also wanted to make more companies relocate their production to the US. However, Porsche does not give in to this. Unlike other car manufacturers, this is not sensible from a cost point of view.
US President Trump imposes duties on European car imports. This makes the sale of German cars much more expensive for manufacturers. Despite high taxes, however, Porsche does not plan to produce in the US.
Porsche is regarded as a German sports car par excellence. Could there actually be its own production in the USA to avoid Donald Trump's tariffs? Porsche is too small for that, says the US boss.
The US tariffs make the export of German cars to the USA more expensive. So moving production to North America could be financially worthwhile. That's what Porsche says about corresponding speculations.
German automaker Porsche has no plans to produce its luxury sports cars in the United States despite increased US tariffs, the company's head of North American operations, Timo Resch, said in an interview with Handelsblatt, according to DPA.
