The European Union made a significant decision on Friday regarding tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China. The EU voted to approve tariffs of up to 35.3% on these vehicles, a move that could have major implications for the electric vehicle market in Europe.
This decision comes as the EU seeks to level the playing field for European manufacturers in the electric vehicle sector. Chinese electric vehicle companies have been rapidly expanding and gaining market share in Europe, sparking concerns about unfair competition and potential market dominance. The tariffs will serve as a protective measure to support European manufacturers and ensure fair competition in the region.
The move has been met with mixed reactions, with some arguing that the tariffs will help protect European jobs and industry, while others express concerns about potential retaliation from China and the impact on consumers. The implications of these tariffs on the electric vehicle market in Europe remain to be seen, but it is clear that the EU is taking steps to address the growing influence of Chinese electric vehicle companies in the region.
Overall, the decision to impose tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles reflects the EU’s commitment to supporting its domestic industry and ensuring fair competition in the electric vehicle market. It will be interesting to see how this decision plays out in the coming months and how it will impact the electric vehicle sector in Europe.

Chinese cars every day overwhelming every country
good news. Considering that we are most likely headed for a new era of global conflict, domestic industry is more important than exports to countries outside the EU
why is not EU subsidizing EV factories? do u want green revolution or not?
How could you nit do tariffs. Its completely anticompetitive when the chinese gov funds these "companies". They sometimes sell at losses to intentionally doom competitors to gain market share whixh they will then raise prices when they have the full market.
Germany has the most to lose in China. They depend on China for their growth and have for years. They secretly might like the tariffs. But must go on the record against them, as to not anger their largest market.
