美欲对进口中重型卡车征收25%关税，业界叫苦

Group 1 - The U.S. government will impose a 25% tariff on all imported medium and heavy trucks starting November 1, citing "national security" as the reason for the tariffs [1] - The American Trucking Association and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have expressed strong opposition to the tariffs, arguing that they will negatively impact the trucking industry and that major import sources like Mexico do not pose a national security threat [1][2] - The average price of a new heavy truck in the U.S. is expected to rise from $170,000 to $200,000 due to the tariffs, significantly increasing costs for freight companies [2] Group 2 - The details surrounding the new truck tariffs remain unclear, particularly regarding the applicability of existing trade agreements with Japan and the EU, which impose different tariff rates [2] - The U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) allows for duty-free status if at least 64% of a truck's value originates from North America, raising questions about whether this provision will still apply under the new tariffs [2] - Companies like Volvo and Stellantis, which have invested in truck manufacturing in Mexico, may face challenges due to the new tariffs, potentially affecting their operations and pricing strategies [3]
