Tesla: US tariffs will harm American companies
According to US media reports on the 14th, Tesla, a US electric vehicle manufacturer, recently sent a letter to the Office of the US Trade Representative, warning that the US government's high tariff policy will harm American companies. In the letter, Tesla said that excessive tariffs will push up the cost of necessary US imports. The trade dispute will also face retaliatory measures, resulting in an increase in tariffs on US exports of electric vehicles, which will inevitably disproportionately affect US exporters. Tesla believes that even if it actively promotes supply chain localization, "it will still be difficult or impossible to source certain parts within the United States."
