Japanese Cars In The US Showed Significant Boost In Sales Despite Tariffs
Sales of major Japanese automakers in the United States surged in March, fueled by U.S. tariffs that went into effect on April 3.
Toyota sales rose 8 percent from the same month a year earlier. Honda sold 13 percent more cars and Nissan reported a 10 percent increase in U.S. sales, according to data the manufacturers released Thursday.
Americans seemed to want to support the 25 percent tariff on imported cars. The tariff on the import of foreign cars could make these cars at least 10 percent more expensive in the US.
Several Japanese manufacturers are now making changes to mitigate the impact of the tariffs. For example, Honda plans to move production of hybrid versions of its Civic model to the U.S., while Nissan has halted U.S. orders for Mexican-built SUVs.
