Stellantis, the maker of Jeep and Ram vehicles, says its preliminary estimates show a 2.3 billion euros ($2.68 billion) net loss in the first half of the year due to U.S. tariffs and some hefty charges.
Stellantis reported a preliminary $2.7 billion first-half loss while dealing with the impact of U.S. tariffs on vehicles and auto parts.
"This has been a tough first half, with increasing external headwinds," the new CEO said in a letter, adding there's also been "meaningful progress."
U.S. automakers are concerned about President Donald Trump's agreement to tariff Japanese vehicles at 15%, saying they'll face steeper import taxes on steel, aluminum and parts than their competitors.
“A world with tariffs is unacceptable for us,” Beato said. “A world with tariffs puts our plant in a vulnerable position, even more so than it is now, and not only for our plant, but all of southern Ontario and the whole auto industry.”
Automakers might increase prices moving forward, according to a report from the intelligence firm AlixPartners.
General Motors was the second auto company this week, after Stellantis, to show the toll that President Trump’s trade policies are taking on the industry.
