Potential Tariffs on Tesla Imports and Impact on Automotive Industry Amid Trade Tensions

Amid rising trade tensions, governments are reviewing policies affecting the automotive industry, particularly concerning electric vehicle transitions. Potential tariffs on Tesla imports are being considered due to the owner's ties with the US president. These tariffs could affect the price of parts in Tesla cars. A 25% tax on vehicles and vehicle parts imported to the US is set to take effect. The Tesla Model Y was the fifth most popular new car in the UK last year, with 32,862 registrations.
