  • Automakers will use tariffs as an excuse to raise prices 25%

Yeah, what did everyone think was gonna happen? Did you think the Mexican government, the Chinese government, was gonna cover the tariff? Because we’re special? Lol

Is it really "just an excuse"? Aluminium and steel are now tariffed at 25% from across the world. If these are the main raw materials for cars, what else should the automakers do?
