Trump announces 25% tariffs on imported autos, which are expected to raise prices on cars in the US. “We’re looking at much higher vehicle prices,” said economist Mary Lovely, senior fellow at the Peterson Institute for International Economics. Roughly 45% of US-sold vehicles are imported, with the largest percentage coming from Mexico and Canada. The automakers that are most vulnerable are Volvo, Mazada and Volkswagon, which have the lowest share of their US-sold vehicles manufactured in this country, according to Wards Automotive and Barclays research.
