The U.S. on Tuesday announced new tariffs on imports of electric vehicles (EVs), solar cells and other clean-energy products from #China, with a whopping quadrupling of levies on electric vehicles to 100 percent. The measures, which will take effect as the U.S. drums up China's so-called "overcapacity" in green goods, do not sit well with some trade partners. Countries like Germany and Sweden have warned against tariffs on Chinese EVs. So are the tariffs apparently more of a political show, particularly during an election cycle, rather than a well-thought economic strategy? How does it sit with U.S. car buyers looking for affordable, clean and innovative vehicles?
