The Trump administration has announced a series of measures affecting the auto industry, including an extension of tariff relief for domestic automakers until 2030 amidst rising auto prices. However, starting November 1, new tariffs of 25% will be imposed on medium- and heavy-duty trucks, along with a 10% tariff on buses. These decisions come following extensive lobbying efforts and are positioned as necessary steps to protect American manufacturing. Additionally, the U.S. will grant tariff relief for truck imports from Mexico and Canada, while maintaining duties on certain imported truck parts. The administration continues to navigate the delicate balance of supporting domestic auto production while addressing international trade relations.
