World's second largest automaker,
Volkswagen Group stops all US car imports
after Trump tariffs



World's second-largest automaker, Volkswagen
Group has made the shock decision to put all
US-bound cars on hold after introducing a 25%
tariff on all imported models.


The global automaker confirmed it's in a high-
stakes holding pattern triggered by President
Donald Trump's 25 percent tariff on imported
vehicles.


Reacting to the move, a spokesperson for
Volkswagen Group criticised the new tariff,
warning that it could damage economies
worldwide, including in America.


They explained: "We share the assessment of
most experts that US tariffs and any counter-

global supply chains and companies as well as
customers will have to bear the negative
consequences."

popular models, such as the Atlas SUV and ID.4
electric crossover, in its Tennessee factory.

neighbouring Mexico, while the Golf is imported
from Germany. Other brands in the Volkswagen
Group, such as Audi, also import their entire
range of models from overseas.


As a result, the new import tariff will affect a
significant number of Volkswagen models,
making them more expensive for consumers to
buy.


To demonstrate the cause of the increased prices for consumers, Volkswagen stated that all models sold in America will feature an 'import fee', which will be shown alongside other typical
charges, such as road tax and optional extras.


According to a memo sent to car dealers,
Volkswagen Group will also freeze shipments to
America until further notice, with the company
said to have just under three months’ worth of
remaining stock.


Executives at the German company are
reportedly aiming to persuade the Trump
Administration to revise the terms of the tari
