The European Union on Wednesday reported it would slap increased tariffs on Chinese electrical car imports, which it uncovered advantage “seriously from unfair subsidies” and pose a “threat of economic personal injury” to EU EV producers.
In a assertion, the EU stated it is imposing a 38.1% tariff on battery electrical vehicle (BEV) producers who did not cooperate with its investigation, and a reduced 21% obligation on carmakers in the Asian country who complied but have not been “sampled.”
Major Chinese BEV producer BYD was struck with a 17.4% tarrif, with Geely slapped with a 20% obligation. The EU has also imposed its 38.1% tariff on SAIC.
All a few producers had been sampled in the EU probe.
