Fred Lembert: 我是弗雷德·莱姆伯特,本期我们将讨论特朗普政府新推出的汽车关税政策。这项政策复杂且变动频繁,对汽车行业,特别是特斯拉等公司,造成了巨大的影响。关税最初宣布对所有非美国组装的汽车征收25%的关税,这将影响许多从墨西哥、加拿大和欧洲进口的汽车。对来自墨西哥和加拿大的汽车零部件的关税将推迟到5月3日,届时将根据美国零件的比例确定豁免情况,这将是一个非常复杂的过程。特朗普的汽车关税政策混乱且变化迅速,可能随时改变,对加拿大和墨西哥汽车的关税可能会有豁免。这项关税将提高美国所有汽车的成本,因为许多汽车使用加拿大钢铁和铝以及中国零部件。尽管特斯拉在美国生产汽车,但其仍将受到关税的重大影响,因为其使用来自中国、加拿大和墨西哥的零部件。特朗普的关税政策史无前例,打破了贸易协定,导致其他国家采取报复性措施,特斯拉成为政治筹码。加拿大政府暂停了电动汽车补贴计划,并禁止特斯拉参与未来的计划,部分原因是特斯拉涉嫌不正当获得补贴。一项调查显示,67%的美国人不会考虑购买特斯拉,其中很大一部分原因是埃隆·马斯克。分析师预测特斯拉第一季度交付量为377,000辆,这将是特斯拉自2022年第三季度以来的最差表现。我们并非特斯拉黑,只是不喜欢看到特斯拉的品牌被一个自大狂毁掉。特朗普的关税政策将提高美国所有汽车的价格,减少市场需求。 Seth Wintraub: 我目前正在拉斯维加斯,试驾新款奥迪GT RS。这是一次中期改款,主要改进是车辆的规格、容量和功能,设计变化相对较小。
