US EditionCar part price increases may be coming due to tariffs
- The U.S. Administration imposed a 25 percent tariff on imported auto parts and a 25 percent duty on vehicles, effective early April 2025, targeting global imports.
- These tariffs followed concerns over excessive imports undermining America's auto industry and aim to boost domestic manufacturing while exempting parts from Canada and Mexico under trade agreements.
- Manufacturers face supply chain complexities with many imported components causing delays and increased costs despite government relocation aid planned over two years.
- General Motors estimates $4 billion to $5 billion in added costs, while analyses suggest vehicle prices could rise by $3,000 domestically and $5,000 to $10,000 for foreign brands.
- The tariffs are expected to raise car prices and repair costs, increasing inflation and pressuring the industry, even as some exemptions ease burdens and supply chain shifts occur.
