Trump's campaign promise: If elected, he will impose a 100% tariff on cars imported from Mexico.

Ahead of the presidential election on November 5, former U.S. President and current Republican candidate Donald Trump has once again proposed radical trade policies. On Tuesday, during a campaign speech in Georgia, he announced that if he wins the election, he will levy a 100% tariff on all cars imported from Mexico to the United States. This measure aims to force automakers to shift their production lines back to the U.S., thereby stimulating domestic manufacturing and increasing employment.

Trump emphasized that this tariff policy is part of his strategy to revitalize American manufacturing. He made it clear that automakers can avoid being subjected to high tariffs only if they establish factories in the U.S. and employ American workers. "If they want to avoid this tariff, the only way is to build factories in the United States and have American workers operate these plants," Trump said during his speech.

This plan could have far-reaching impacts on the current automotive industry, especially for automakers that have production facilities in Mexico. Many multinational companies rely on Mexico's low-cost manufacturing base, exporting large numbers of vehicles to the U.S. market. Trump's tariff policy seeks to drastically raise import costs, prompting these companies to reconsider their production strategies.

This move by Trump is not only aimed at solidifying his "America First" policy but also at garnering more voter support in key manufacturing states. This announcement has once again sparked discussions on the future of U.S.-Mexico trade relations and changes in the global automotive supply chain. Analysts warn that if Trump is elected and implements this policy, car prices could rise, affecting consumers and the overall stability of the industry.
