MichAuto Executive Director Glenn Stevens Jr. discussed the court-ordered halt to certain import taxes. This did not include Trump’s 25% tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts, which could raise vehicle costs and impact consumer sales. Stevens pointed out that while the court’s ruling did not provide immediate relief from these primary tariffs, it was still a positive development for the industry.
