The United States is eyeing this kind of car made in China again? After the Biden administration announced that it would double tariffs on Chinese electric vehicle imports from 25% to 100%, the two largest U.S. golf cart manufacturers are also pushing the government to raise taxes on China, citing the so-called "massive influx of Chinese imports." According to a report by Bloomberg on June 29 local time, Club Car and Textron Specialized Vehicles, headquartered near Augusta, Georgia, this week asked the Biden administration to impose 100% tariffs on Chinese-made golf carts and other low-speed, battery-powered personal vehicles, making them comparable to the tariffs imposed by the United States on ordinary Chinese electric vehicles. Mark Wagner, president and CEO of Kraboca, claimed in an emailed statement on June 28 local time: "Imports [from] China are growing rapidly, taking advantage of the price advantage provided by Chinese government subsidies to drive their own advantages while capturing a larger share of the consumer car market." We must act. ”
