Germany’s VDA auto association said the tariffs would hurt European and U.S. car makers exporting from China and risked retaliation by China with counter-tariffs

BYD electric cars at the international container terminal of Taicang Port at Suzhou Port, in China's eastern Jiangsu Province, on Sept. 11, 2023.Germany’s VDA auto association has urged the European Commission to drop its planned tariffs on China-made electric vehicles in a last-ditch effort to influence negotiations ahead of the tariffs kicking in on Thursday.

The value of passenger car exports from Germany to China last year was more than three times the value of imports from China, and the value of exports by component suppliers was four times as much as the value of imports, according to the VDA. “Anti-subsidy tariffs are not an adequate measure to strengthen European competitiveness and resilience in the long term,” it said.

Brussels has made clear that it expected China to come to technical talks taking place this week with a road map for “addressing the injurious subsidization” of its EV industry if there were to be a negotiated outcome.
