原文地址：Why Europe Is Raising Tariffs on China’s Cheap EVs
新闻日期：2024-08-26
欧洲委员会计划对中国进口电动车征收额外关税，以应对北京为汽车产业提供的补贴。这将对包括比亚迪、上海汽车集团和吉利在内的企业产生影响，但特斯拉公司在中国生产的汽车也将面临额外9%的关税。
6月份，欧洲委员会已通知汽车制造商，计划将关税从当前的10%提高，并暂定了一些具体税率。8月20日，布鲁塞尔决定继续实施这些关税并对其进行了部分调整。
比亚迪、上海汽车集团和吉利将分别面临36.3%、19.3%和17%的额外关税；特斯拉虽然单独评估后仍需缴纳较高关税，但总体上相对其他制造商来说还算较低。未接受调查但合作的企业，如东风汽车集团和蔚来汽车，将面临21.3%的关税。而其他未合作的企业则将面临36.3%的关税。
原文摘要：
Help is on the way for European carmakers struggling to deal with an influx of cheap Chinese electric vehicles. The European Commission plans to impose additional tariffs of as much as 36.3% on EVs imported from China after an investigation into subsidies that Beijing doles out to its car industry. The duties are expected to hurt companies including BYD Co., SAIC Motor Corp. and Geely, but also risk affecting Western manufacturers that ship cars made at their Chinese factories to Europe — for example Tesla Inc., whose Chinese-made cars face an additional 9% duty. While the levies may help Europe’s domestic brands to defend their home turf, they’re likely to spur retaliation from Beijing, harming their business in China. . The European Commission formally notified carmakers in June that it would raise duties from the current level of 10%, and also set provisional individual levies. Around two months later, on Aug. 20, Brussels said it would move forward with the tariffs while revising some of the proposed duties. MG maker SAIC, Volvo Car AB parent Geely and BYD face additional duties of 36.3%, 19.3% and 17%, respectively — all slightly lower than what the EU announced in June. The 9% levy for Tesla, which asked to be assessed on a individual basis, is relatively welcome news, as it’s lower than what other manufacturers face. Companies that cooperated with the EU’s probe but weren’t surveyed by EU investigators — such as Dongfeng Motor Group Co. and Nio Inc. — would be hit with a 21.3% duty. Other non-cooperating manufacturers face a 36.3% tariff. .
