Along with other global and regional<br \/>\neconomic, regulatory and market conditions, we have factored these<br \/>\nnew tariff assumptions into our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.spglobal.com\/mobility\/en\/research-analysis\/2025-auto-sales-forecast-global.html\"><br \/>\nDecember 2024 vehicle forecasts<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 ><strong>Anticipated US tariff changes<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p >By mid-2025, S&amp;amp;P Global Mobility expects the US will<br \/>\nimplement a universal tariff on goods from outside North America.<br \/>\nWe currently assume Canada and Mexico will be exempt from these<br \/>\ntariffs as part of the governing US-Mexico-Canada Agreement<br \/>\n(USMCA), though the Trump transition team has indicated it may<br \/>\nimpose a 25% tariff on Canada and Mexico. This could evolve as the<br \/>\ncountries review this trade agreement in mid-2026.<\/p>\n<p >A universal tariff would presumably cover all goods, including<br \/>\nautos and auto parts, based on the December 2024 round of S&amp;amp;P<br \/>\nGlobal Mobility vehicle, production, powertrain and sales<br \/>\nforecasts. Our current assumption is for a universal standard 10%<br \/>\ntariff, up from a typical 2.5%.<\/p>\n<p >We expect that goods from mainland China imported to the US will<br \/>\nsee a new 30% tariff (up from 21%), with the existing 102.5% tariff<br \/>\non electric vehicles from mainland China remaining in place. We<br \/>\nexpect this tariff will not be used as a bargaining tool that Trump<br \/>\nwould revoke if he obtains other concessions but would instead<br \/>\nbecome a permanent tariff.<\/p>\n<h2 ><strong>A period of policy uncertainty<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p >Trump has said he will act quickly after he takes office on Jan.<br \/>\n20, 2025. We expect an extended period of heightened policy<br \/>\nuncertainty, which will have real-world impacts on economies. Even<br \/>\nif he does not act on some of the more extreme tariff proposals,<br \/>\nthe environment is not likely to be clear and stable.<\/p>\n<p >A heightened period of policy turmoil and uncertainty is<br \/>\nexpected for as much as a year, possibly longer. This uncertainty<br \/>\nitself can be as difficult for the automotive industry as the<br \/>\nimpact of tariffs when they arrive.<\/p>\n<p >Trump will also likely make changes to US emissions<br \/>\nrequirements, and we expect significant reductions in<br \/>\nbattery-electric vehicle (BEV) volumes\/market share and adjustments<br \/>\nin electrification mix. In 2030, we expect the US BEV mix to reach<br \/>\nabout 30%, compared with prior projections for about 40% in that<br \/>\nyear.<\/p>\n<p >The December 2024 forecast update reflects a mix of upgrades in<br \/>\nthe extreme near-term forecast and significant downgrades for<br \/>\nvarious regions in the intermediate term. Our downward revisions<br \/>\nfor 2025 and 2026 reflect some negative impacts of broader tariff<br \/>\nactions under the incoming Trump administration, along with<br \/>\nshifting market demand and inventory management challenges, among<br \/>\nother factors.<\/p>\n<h2 ><strong>US tariff changes would impact virtually every<br \/>\ncountry&#39;s economy<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p >S&amp;amp;P Global Mobility expects both positive and negative<br \/>\nimpacts on the US and global vehicle markets and economies as a<br \/>\nresult of Trump&#39;s policies. A universal tariff will affect<br \/>\nvirtually every country&#39;s economy and there are risks associated if<br \/>\nthe administration takes this step. However, there is also an<br \/>\nopportunity for the US light-vehicle market to see some<br \/>\nbenefits.<\/p>\n<p >Take Europe and Asia, for example. Europe is a major exporter to<br \/>\nthe US. Its key manufacturing economies will see the biggest<br \/>\nimpact, and this could weaken internal markets across the region.<br \/>\nWith European manufacturing already declining, the impact on jobs<br \/>\nand public sentiment could worsen.<\/p>\n<p >Some ASEAN markets have benefited from resourcing out of<br \/>\nmainland China, but expected slower US exports and a slower China<br \/>\nmarket in the near term could delay auto sales recovery.<\/p>\n<h2 ><strong>Some new policies may provide economic<br \/>\nrelief<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p >In the US, we expect several of Trump&#39;s policies to provide some<br \/>\nrelief. We view proposed income tax breaks and corporate tax cuts<br \/>\nas potentially positive changes.<\/p>\n<p >Specific to the US light-vehicle market, the administration&#39;s<br \/>\nexpected rollbacks of emissions and fuel economy regulations will<br \/>\nlikely reshape the mix of vehicles being offered in the US. The<br \/>\nlowered regulatory requirements will mean vehicles with lower<br \/>\nlevels of electrification because of less pressure to move to BEVs<br \/>\nas quickly.<\/p>\n<p >That change should enable automakers to offer more affordable<br \/>\npropulsion solutions, easing pressure on vehicle prices. We<br \/>\ncontinue to expect growth for BEVs, but with lower penetration in<br \/>\nthe medium-term due to eased regulations.<\/p>\n<p >Because of expected lower vehicle prices, we forecast that<br \/>\nmedium-term US light-vehicle sales will improve.<\/p>\n<h2 ><strong>The impact of a global light-vehicle sales tariff may<br \/>\npeak in 2026<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p >Because the tariffs would not be in place for all of 2025,<br \/>\nS&amp;amp;P Global Mobility expects global light vehicle sales impacted<br \/>\nmore heavily in 2026, with smaller impact in later years. Compared<br \/>\nwith our November 2024 forecast, we expect global light-vehicle<br \/>\nsales to decrease by about 793,000 units in 2025, with a peak<br \/>\nimpact of 1.05 million units in 2026.<\/p>\n<h2 ><strong>Downside risks of tariffs: Potential trade war,<br \/>\ninflation<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p >A US universal tariff policy could, however, lead to an<br \/>\naggressive trade war. In that case, it&#39;s likely that inflation go<br \/>\nup, while interest rates will not decrease as much as expected.<\/p>\n<p >Countries exporting to the US will see a slowdown in their<br \/>\nmanufacturing industries, many of which are already in a slump.<br \/>\nThis would affect mainland China, Europe, key Asian export markets<br \/>\nand most emerging markets.<\/p>\n<p >S&amp;amp;P Global Market Intelligence expects the world GDP<br \/>\nforecast for 2025 to be lowered because of these revised<br \/>\nassumptions, with mainland China taking the biggest hit &#8211; which<br \/>\nwill affect countries exporting to mainland China as well.<\/p>\n<p >Though opportunities for US light-vehicle sales are likely due<br \/>\nto lower vehicle prices from these regulatory changes, we also<br \/>\nexpect the US GDP forecast will be lowered for the next three to<br \/>\nfour years, compared to our November 2024 economic forecasts. As<br \/>\nthe cost of goods increases and the market adjusts, we expect the<br \/>\nUS to see higher than previously expected inflation initially, with<br \/>\ninterest rates likely to be higher across the forecast than in<br \/>\nearlier projections.<\/p>\n<p ><em>he S&amp;amp;P Global Mobility AutoIntelligence service provides<br \/>\ndaily analysis of global automotive news and events.
