Trump approves tariff exemptions for US auto production

US President Donald Trump signed orders providing significant tariff exemptions for US auto and engine production and imposing new 25 percent tariffs on imported medium- and heavy-duty trucks and parts, effective November 1.

Trump also imposed a 10 percent tariff on imported buses, reports Al-Jarida daily.

Trump’s order allows automakers to receive a credit equal to 3.75 percent of the suggested retail price of vehicles assembled in the United States through 2030 to offset tariffs on parts.
