The Biden administration has said that it will increase import duties on Chinese made BEVs fourfold, from 25% at present to 100%, to “safeguard American jobs”.
The US is China’s largest trading partner and Biden said the new duties would affect US$18bn worth of Chinese imports. He said the tariffs would be imposed on “carefully targeted strategic sectors”, mostly in “green technology”, to allow US manufacturers more time to catch up with their Chinese counterparts.
