Volkswagen is implementing an additional charge on vehicles impacted by the 25% tariffs set by U.S. President Donald Trump. This move involves stopping rail shipments from Mexico temporarily and delaying cars arriving from Europe at ports, as per a report by the Wall Street Journal. The tariffs would apply to more than $460 billion in vehicle and auto parts imports yearly. Volkswagen aims to inform dealers of pricing strategies for affected vehicles by mid-April and distribute them to stores by the month's end. The company emphasized the importance of transparency during uncertain times. Volkswagen has yet to respond to a request for comment from Reuters. Additionally, the carmaker had previously warned that U.S. tariffs and retaliatory tariffs would adversely impact economic growth and prosperity in various regions.
