Auto stocks hit a speed bump after <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/donald-trump">President Donald Trump</a> brushed off concerns over higher car prices following his announcement of new 25% tariffs on foreign imports.
Shares of Toyota Motor Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), Nissan Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NSANY#NYSE">NSANY</a>), Volkswagen AG (OTCPK: VWAGY) and Stellantis NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>) slid on investor concerns over the impact on global supply chains and consumer demand.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump's Tariff Play</h2>
Trump's weekend interview with NBC News only added fuel to the fire, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/auto-stocks-fall-after-trump-says-he-couldnt-care-less-about-higher-prices-21cd7c16">reported</a> the Wall Street Journal. When asked if foreign automakers hiking prices would hurt U.S. consumers, he dismissed the concern outright. "I couldn't care less."
The logic? If foreign cars get more expensive, Americans will buy domestic. That stance sent ripples through the markets, with Asian and European automakers posting sharp declines.
In Japan, Toyota dropped 3.1%, Honda fell 3.1%, and Nissan tumbled 4%. South Korea's Hyundai slipped 3.8%; in Europe, Stellantis lost 2.8%, Volkswagen declined 3.1%, and Mercedes-Benz slid 2.6%. Even Ferrari NV (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) felt the heat, dropping 1.7% despite plans to hike prices by up to 10% to offset tariffs.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Is This A Buying Opportunity?</h2>
Auto stocks have been in reverse all year, and technical indicators don't offer much encouragement. Toyota&#8217;s stock is flashing strong bearish signals, trading below its 5-, 20-, 50- and 200-day moving averages. The same goes for Honda and Stellantis stocks, both caught in a downtrend and facing selling pressure.
Even Tesla Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) stock, often seen as insulated from traditional automaker woes, is down over 30% YTD. But unlike its global peers, Tesla has found some support, sitting slightly above its eight and 20-day moving averages—a rare bullish signal amid the carnage.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Road Ahead</h2>
With tariffs kicking in on April 2, the next few weeks could be bumpy for auto stocks. If global carmakers pass the costs to consumers, demand could take a hit, further pressuring share prices.
However, investors with a long-term view might find bargains in the wreckage, particularly among companies able to navigate price adjustments without losing market share.
For now, auto stocks remain in the danger zone. But contrarians might find value under the hood if prices fall much further.

Auto Stocks Skid After Trump Shrugs Off Higher Prices - Should You Buy The Dip?

President Donald Trump remains undeterred in the face of potential price hikes in the auto industry in response to his new tariffs on foreign-made vehicles.
What Happened: On Saturday, Trump refuted claims that he had advised auto industry leaders against price increases in response to the new tariffs. Instead, he reaffirmed his decision to raise tariffs in an effort to boost American manufacturing.
&#8220;I couldn&#8217;t care less if they raise prices, because people are going to start buying American-made cars,&#8221; Trump stated in an interview <a href="https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-says-couldnt-care-less-automakers-raise-prices-tariffs-rcna198731">with</a> NBC News. He further expressed his anticipation for price increases, which he believes will steer consumers towards American-made vehicles.
Earlier this week, Trump declared a 25% tariff on foreign-made cars and auto parts, set to take effect from April 2. Countries such as Germany, Japan, and South Korea are predicted to be most affected by these tariffs.

Trump confirmed these import policies are here to stay. &#8220;The world has been ripping&nbsp;off the United States for&nbsp;the last 40 years and&nbsp;more,&#8221; he declared. &#8220;And all we&#8217;re&nbsp;doing is being fair, and&nbsp;frankly, I&#8217;m being very generous.&#8221;
According to reports, if&nbsp;the tariffs are fully passed&nbsp;onto consumers, the average price of an imported vehicle could spike by $12,500. This could potentially fuel overall inflation. However, Trump pointed out that countries with &#8220;great value&#8221; resources might have room to negotiate lower prices.
Despite some resistance from lawmakers, Trump is convinced that this move will bring long-term benefits for the U.S. This announcement has already triggered significant investments in American plants by foreign companies, including&nbsp;Apple Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>),&nbsp;Honda Motor Co., Ltd.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>), and&nbsp;Hyundai Motor Company&nbsp;(KRX: 005380).
Why It Matters: This decision by the President could reshape the auto industry, potentially leading to a shift in consumer behavior towards American-made vehicles. 
The move has already sparked investments from foreign companies in American manufacturing plants, indicating a possible boost to the domestic auto industry. 
However, the potential price hike and its impact on inflation will be a key factor to watch in the coming months.

Trump Unfazed by Potential Auto Price Hikes Amid New Tariffs: 'I Couldn't Care Less'

Shares of auto-related stocks are trading lower after President Trump said he will introduce new tariffs on auto and auto parts imports.

Honda Motor Co's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) short percent of float has fallen 6.06% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 4.53 million shares sold short, which is 0.31% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.63 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743093020_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Honda Motor Co has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Honda Motor Co's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Honda Motor Co's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 7.64%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Looking Into Honda Motor Co's Recent Short Interest

NBA legend <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/michael-jordan">Michael Jordan</a> once famously said, "Republicans buy sneakers too," emphasizing his choice to steer clear of politics while his iconic shoes propelled Nike to the pinnacle of sports retail.
That&#8217;s advice Tesla (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) shareholders may wish the company&#8217;s CEO, Elon Musk, had taken to heart. Shares are down more than 32% this year, as Musk&#8217;s heavy involvement with the new administration has cratered Tesla&#8217;s electric vehicle (EV) sales.
Tesla sales are down 40% in Europe compared to last year, even as total EV sales soared by 26%. The picture is only slightly rosier in the U.S., with Tesla sales down 11% in January. In China, the world&#8217;s largest market for electric vehicles, Tesla has been overtaken by a domestic rival for the first time.
But all this bad news for Tesla has been great news for other EV makers.&nbsp;
Here are four non-Tesla EV stocks set to profit from soaring EV sales.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">BYD Company Ltd. </h2>
News of BYD Company's (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BYDDY#OTC">BYDDY</a>) battery breakthrough earlier this month sent the stock to new all-time highs. BYD's new Super-E platform promises to provide a range of 249 miles with a simple five-minute charge, easing a major customer concern. However, investors with keen eyes have had BYD on their radar for a while, as the stock has risen 88% in the last 12 months (including a 43% rip over the previous three). As mentioned above, the company is now outselling Tesla in China, and the government has been providing very accommodating policies.  
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfM2z7gHUuogWEKJa-lAi6iBZUGWj6awqkR3voSSyh2u9u4VbaTd-TlfODhmSI9rOMXKap_zYq3xpbpqHgRJ4CCYDl_yfrZPu1XbxKdKbIQtrwV9k9eZqBg4DTk9Lbm3VT4rS5riw?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
BYD is a conglomerate with several divisions. BYD Auto is the most well-known, thanks to its electric and hybrid vehicles and battery charging solutions. Still, the company also has BYD Electronics and FinDream, which manufacture electronic parts, vehicle components and batteries. The automotive division brings in 80% of the company's revenue. The stock trades at 32 times earnings, far cheaper than TSLA, and the chart shows signs of the uptrend continuing. The share price is firmly above both the 50-day and 200-day moving averages, and the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates that the upside momentum remains intact.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Volkswagen AG </h2>
The German automotive giant, Volkswagen Ag (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VWAGY#OTC">VWAGY</a>) is finally showing signs of breaking out of a multi-year downtrend. Tesla's losses in Europe have been Volkswagen's gains as registration numbers are skyrocketing for several of the firm's vehicles, including the newest top-selling European battery-powered EV: the Volkswagen ID.4. The Volkswagen ID.7 had the third most number of registrations to start the year, an upswing of more than 650%. On the plug-in hybrid side, the Volkswagen Tiguan is the second-highest-selling model in 2025, with an upstick of 250% over the previous period in 2024.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXfYQknuvziPa7-p8xwVvZ-xuCgD8wDNXevExx1y2ZaRxvnZgDIRgmwpaWw2WDXEhxzM0YT4qNY9PA1VVi9-EsovSNcvzWl8G3q1W4VZEWTh68xkyfvzTbaZfZMefm8FbB-pcArUhg?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
Volkswagen stock is down more than 25% in the last 12 months, but momentum is beginning to turn. Shares are up over 20% year-to-date, and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD), a momentum indicator, is starting to send bullish signals. VWAGY trades at just 4.8 times earnings and pays a healthy 8% dividend yield. And let's not forget the stimulus set to be unleashed in Germany, some of which will surely find its way to automakers like Volkswagen.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Toyota Motors Corp. </h2>
Toyota Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) is the world&#8217;s largest automaker, with a market cap above $251 billion and an annual revenue of about $309 billion. Toyota is choosing to focus on plug-in hybrids over full-battery electric cars, and the RAV4 SUV is a top choice for customers looking for a mix of electric and gas power.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXevHa0rGDdutIcd7zGUpjsCGBSwfOmIZ7LA4i7xQFaZdN3xbxyTQ-gNNd_iqhl6YL-JXt01MIbQuT6A_d0VzjjjPMH-EMdTEV0OXGCIpLyQOAaTPcauHCBe-Jyj6d3XehY0bbHjHg?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
Toyota controls more than 10% of the world's automobile market share, giving it a tremendous opportunity to eat into Tesla's EV sales. The company already has high margins, reporting a 20.32% gross margin rate and a 10.86% profit margin rate in the most recent quarter. The stock has a forward Price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 8.80 and a Price-to-sales (P/S) rate of 0.86, implying this $250 billion behemoth is undervalued. Additionally, the stock pays a 3.5% dividend yield and scored a 97.95 in Value and 98.51 in Quality on Benzinga Edge rankings, indicating both short- and medium-term upside. Another bullish signal was triggered recently as the stock price breached the 50-day moving average after nearly a year of trading below it.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Honda Motor Co Ltd. </h2>
Honda Motor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) may not dominate the automobile market share like Toyota. Still, the Tokyo-based manufacturer is known for its highly reliable and safe vehicles, such as the popular Honda Accord and Civic sedan models. The company also has several hybrids and electric cars on its line, including the plug-in versions of the Accord, Civi, and CR-V, a fully electric Honda Prologue, and the fuel cell-powered CR-V e-FCEV.
<figure class="wp-block-image"><img decoding="async" src="https://lh7-rt.googleusercontent.com/docsz/AD_4nXdNNi5Exlsi5hp2HlXYjcS4rrE5aHGSxDmL4IvduKM6rCtkNdsKWQfGrWCI3VDWK8NsR6pZdo-srsIvFIRhbDAs_JeuTj0NiJqN45Hw3fHf4jF0Dxv6bTk-5iL64kFy-gPzr25d?key=Ru_TemLXG7pg9xP89RkSNslp" alt="" /></figure>
HMC scores a 99.67 in Value and 98.67 in Quality on Benzinga Edge; it trades at just 6.6 times forward earnings and 0.32 times sales. And while a 4.8% profit margin is something Tesla would scoff at, it's still a fair number for an automobile manufacturer. The stock hit a multi-year bottom in December 2024 but has since recovered from under $23 to over $30 to start 2025. Like Toyota, this stock is hovering near its 50-day moving average, which had previously acted as a resistance level. Toyota broke through this resistance. Keep tracking Honda to see if its stock does the same.

4 EV Stocks Soaring As Tesla Tumbles

As of March 19, 2025, two stocks in the consumer discretionary sector could be flashing a real warning to investors who value momentum as a key criteria in their trading decisions.
The RSI is a momentum indicator, which compares a stock&#8217;s strength on days when prices go up to its strength on days when prices go down. When compared to a stock&#8217;s price action, it can give traders a better sense of how a stock may perform in the short term. An asset is typically considered overbought when the<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/rsi"> RSI is above 70</a>, according to<a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/"> Benzinga Pro</a>. 
Here's the latest list of major overbought players in this sector.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Honda Motor Co Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>)</h3>

Honda, Suzuki To Join Tesla Carbon Emissions Pool For 2025 To Comply With EU 2025 Rules

Former Nissan Motor Co. chief Carlos Ghosn claims his 18 years of work at the struggling Japanese automaker have been &#8220;wasted&#8221; while suggesting Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) CEO Elon Musk could potentially fix the company&#8217;s mounting problems.
What Happened: Speaking from his home in Beirut, Lebanon, the fugitive former executive told Shukan Post that Nissan&#8217;s current leadership lacks &#8220;vision, decision, clarity, judgment, insight&#8221; following his dramatic 2018 arrest and subsequent escape from Japan.
&#8220;All the work I and my team did there over 18 years is wasted,&#8221; Ghosn said in the interview, as Nissan continues to struggle financially, having burned through ¥506 billion ($6.6 billion) in the first nine months of the fiscal year despite holding ¥1.2 trillion ($15.65 billion) in net cash, <a href="https://japantoday.com/category/features/kuchikomi/ghosn-says-all-his-work-wasted-at-nissan-says-musk-could-fix-automaker">reported</a> Japan Today
When asked what he would do if still in charge, Ghosn mentioned &#8220;My friend Elon Musk,&#8221; suggesting the world&#8217;s richest man could help turn around the automaker&#8217;s fortunes.
Nissan did not immediately respond to&nbsp;<a href="http://pro.benzinga.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Benzinga</a>'s request for comment.

Why It Matters: The comments come as Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) reportedly remains open to reviving merger talks with Nissan that could create the world&#8217;s <a href="https://in.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/02/43771894/honda-open-to-reviving-nissan-merger-talks-if-ceo-uchida-steps-down-creating-fourth-largest-global-automaker">fourth-largest automaker</a>, but only if current Nissan CEO Makoto Uchida steps down. Previous negotiations collapsed when Honda demanded full ownership rather than an equal partnership.
Meanwhile, Renault (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RNLSY#OTC">RNLSY</a>), which owns 36% of Nissan, is exploring options to sell its stake at a premium, while other potential investors including Foxconn, KKR &amp; Co. and U.S. automakers evaluate opportunities.
Ghosn, who rescued Nissan from near bankruptcy in 1999 by cutting 21,000 jobs and closing five plants, maintains he was a victim of Japan&#8217;s &#8220;corrupt&#8221; justice system. After spending 108 days in detention following financial misconduct charges, he escaped Japan in December 2019 hidden inside a box on a private jet.
&#8220;I have no regrets regarding my escape,&#8221; Ghosn told Shukan Post. &#8220;The treatment I received at the hands of prosecutors was cruel, inhuman and unfair.&#8221;

Elon Musk As Nissan's Fix? Carlos Ghosn Says Automaker Lacks 'Vision, Decision, Clarity, Judgment, Insight'

Honda shares are trading higher after President Trump mentioned the company in his address to Congress, although the company reportedly denied making an announcement. Investors may also be assessing trade policy and Trump's plans to make interest payments on car loans tax deductible for US-made vehicles.

<a href="https://www.wrtv.com/news/local-news/trump-mentions-new-indiana-honda-plant-but-company-denies-announcement">https://www.wrtv.com/news/local-news/trump-mentions-new-indiana-honda-plant-but-company-denies-announcement</a>
During his address to Congress on Tuesday night, President Donald Trump expressed optimism regarding growth in the U.S. auto industry, citing Honda's decision to build a new plant in Indiana as a key example.
Trump's comments appear to reference a recent <a href="https://www.reuters.com/business/autos-transportation/honda-produce-next-civic-indiana-not-mexico-due-us-tariffs-sources-say-2025-03-03/">Reuters report</a> stating that Honda will produce its next Civic model in Indiana rather than Mexico due to U.S. tariffs.
However, when WRTV reached out to Honda for clarification, the company denied that any new plans had been announced.

He says they&#8217;re worth the pain on the industry because they&#8217;ll help curb the flow of undocumented migrants and illegal drugs into the U.S. 
"Trump's 100% right, and all of us should rally around his demand that our two neighbors step up," Moreno said in an interview last week, <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-03-03/ohio-senator-says-short-term-tariff-pain-worth-it-for-autos?sref=TBDibEcD">reported</a> Bloomberg. "Until they do what they need to do, yes, am I willing to take some amount of short-term pain? Absolutely, 100%.&#8221;
Auto industry leaders have warned that the measures pose significant risks to industry profits, employment and sales as they prepare for higher costs and disruptions to their North American supply chains.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Auto Workers In The Buckeye State</h2>
Ohio, home to nearly 100,000 auto and related industry workers, is the largest U.S. producer of engines and the second-largest producer of transmissions. Automakers with factories in Ohio include General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Stellantis N.V. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), Honda Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) and Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>). The Goodyear Tire &amp; Rubber Company (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GT#NASDAQ">GT</a>) is based in Ohio.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Trump Tariffs Take Effect</h2>
&#8220;The tariffs are all set,&#8221; Trump <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/03/44103406/us-stocks-futures-tumble-as-traders-await-trumps-congress-address-volatility-is-certainly-being-fed-by-trump-20-moves-says-expert">told reporters</a> on Monday afternoon, saying that there was "no room" for Canada or Mexico to negotiate further delays. &#8220;They go into effect tomorrow.&#8221;
The tariffs impose 25% duties on most Canadian and Mexican imports while raising Chinese imports to 20%. These measures apply to approximately $1.5 trillion in annual imports, signaling to markets that Trump is willing to leverage economic pressure to generate revenue and boost domestic manufacturing jobs, noted the outlet.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Moreno Wants To Repeal Emissions Rules</h2>
Moreno, who was a luxury car dealer in Cleveland before entering politics, recently introduced legislation backed by GM, Stellantis, and Toyota Motor Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>) that would repeal emissions rules and give tax breaks to car manufacturers by loosening fuel economy and clean-air regulations.
The GOP Senator, who contends that U.S. auto manufacturing has been under attack from inconsistent regulations, foreign competition and misguided federal policies, said his bill would give automakers greater flexibility and long-term stability, <a href="https://www.cleveland.com/news/2025/02/us-sen-bernie-moreno-introduces-bill-to-repeal-emissions-rules-give-tax-breaks-to-automakers.html">according</a> to Cleveland.com. 
Moreno&#8217;s bill also proposes a 200% tax deduction on autoworker wages, contingent on employers meeting specific criteria, which he argues could help offset the financial strain of tariffs.

Trump's 25% Tariffs On Auto Imports Are Worth The 'Short-Term Pain,' Says Ohio GOP Senator

Auto manufacturers may be facing a manufacturing dilemma as <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/general/market-summary/25/02/43821214/trump-calls-for-more-tariffs-federal-reserve-minutes-on-deck-whats-driving-markets-wednesday">President Donald Trump&#8216;s proposed tariffs</a> threaten to upend global production strategies, potentially reshaping an industry that imported roughly half of the 16 million vehicles sold in the U.S. last year.
Trump warned Tuesday that sector-specific tariffs could reach &#8220;in the neighborhood of 25%&#8221; and might increase over time, <a href="https://www.wsj.com/business/autos/trump-tariff-auto-industry-impact-2ec3bdb6?mod=hp_lead_pos3">according to The Wall Street Journal</a>. The president suggested a grace period would allow companies to relocate production to the U.S.
&#8220;Things keep changing minute by minute, but our stance is to stay flexible and be able to be agile in reacting to the situation,&#8221; Shinji Aoyama, Honda (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HMC#NYSE">HMC</a>) Executive Vice President, said.

</ul>
Asian and European automakers face particular exposure. Japanese manufacturers Toyota (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TM#NYSE">TM</a>), Honda and Nissan rely heavily on American consumers, with the U.S. market accounting for 25% of Toyota&#8217;s global sales, nearly 40% of Honda&#8217;s, and a steep portion of Nissan&#8217;s business.
South Korean manufacturers Hyundai and Kia, which have grown rapidly in the American market, remain more dependent on imports than their Japanese counterparts despite expanding U.S. production capacity.
For German automakers, American sales represent an opportunity amid Europe&#8217;s regulatory challenges and China&#8217;s increasingly competitive market. Premium brands face the greatest vulnerability—Ferrari (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RACE#NYSE">RACE</a>) and Porsche sold roughly 25% of their vehicles to American buyers last year, all imported from Europe.

Mercedes-Benz and BMW operate manufacturing facilities in Alabama and South Carolina respectively, but their production strategies are complex. The plants produce SUVs for global export while the companies continue importing sedans from European factories.
&#8220;It really depends on the amount of tariffs first of all,&#8221; Volvo Cars Chief Executive Jim Rowan told The Journal, saying the company has capacity to increase production at its South Carolina factory but must weigh tariff costs against U.S. production expenses.
The White House has specifically targeted what it calls &#8220;lack of reciprocity&#8221; in trade relationships, pointing to the European Union&#8217;s 10% tariff on imported vehicles compared to America&#8217;s 2.5% equivalent fee.

Trump has expanded the critique to include value-added taxes, <a href="https://x.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1891572283161944433">writing on X</a> that the taxes are &#8220;far more punitive&#8221; than tariffs and would factor into reciprocal tariff calculations. European countries typically apply VAT at rates of 20% or higher on vehicle sales.
Detroit&#8217;s &#8220;Big Three&#8221; manufacturers—General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Ford Motor (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) and Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>)—have been lobbying intensively to minimize North American trade barriers, as their supply chains depend on cross-border component movement.
Tariffs targeting Mexico and Canada remain on hold until March, according to The Journal, while federal agencies are due to deliver implementation reports <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/tech/25/02/43759231/trumps-auto-tariffs-teslas-stock-plunge-ubers-tesla-partnership-musks-dubai-loop-and-starbase-city">for reciprocal tariffs in early April</a>.
