The European Commission has introduced new tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles, prompting backlash from China and concerns about the impact on Europe's car industry. These tariffs, considered insufficient by some analysts, aim to counteract the state-subsidized exports of Chinese EV manufacturers.

While some Chinese brands like BYD are expected to weather the tariffs, others, such as SAIC, may face more significant challenges. Stellantis opts to focus on actively competing in the market rather than relying solely on tariffs for protection amidst fears of an escalating trade war.
