CVMA statement on U.S. auto tariffs

March 27, 2025 STATEMENT

Statement by Brian Kingston, President & CEO of the Canadian Vehicle Manufacturers’ Association:

“U.S. tariffs on vehicles and parts will have immediate negative consequences for the highly integrated North American automotive industry. The result is higher costs for manufacturers, price increases for consumers, and a less competitive industry.

“We continue to urge all parties that all USMCA-compliant parts, components, and vehicles be free of tariffs under that agreement.”
