CBC News traveled to Michigan’s motor city for the great auto industry, learn how consumers and dealers respond to tariffs. Detroit is the main automatic industrial player of Canada, the house of giant plants such as Windsor, Ont., Ford and Stellantis.
The acquisition of the families of the family was taken earlier than planned first.
“We were a little worried about waiting, you know, not knowing what will happen in six months or a year, referring to the information that vehicles will be expensive.
“I am looking for about a month, so I think the car is great and for a new car I think I and all tariffs are good time to buy a new car before prices rise.”
He is not alone. Sales for US vehicles rose more than 10 percent in March in the same month last year Cox car and a TD Economy Report.
At the end of March, Trump was released on April 2, the leadership of 25 percent of the Canadian-United States-Mexico Agreement (JUSMA) 3 percent of tariffs and 3 percent tariffs will be applied.
The car’s sale ‘pretty good haste’
The owner of the Toyota dealer who sold his family cars, the owner of the Bob page, the sale of 20 percent this year is compared to the same period in previous years, he said.
“In general, there was a very good haste. I hear the attached car purchases throughout the nation. People who act in the next two or three months, try to do it now,”
The page has a Honda dealer about 16 kilometers from Toyota.
One of the best vendors of the page in Bloomsfield Honda, Sean Fathi, said the work is good.
“When tariffs are declared in mid-March … We had a great spirit in the sale of new cars and many buyers,” he said.
“So a buyer in the market for a month from today is now; a buyer in the market is now coming. People (more tariffs) are concerned about what happens.”
Selling is very good, Fathi joked to CBC: “I have a holiday … I’m going to get close to the moment and I don’t want to go some kind.”
But the Fathi sells sales can be suspended.
“I hope this does not happen, you know why people need to pay more than the tariffs because someone will want to put a tariff on a vehicle.” Not fair. ”
Tariff effective cars can cost thousands of yeast
According to Anderson Economic GroupThe tariffs are worth $ 2500 and $ 5,000 to American vehicles and up to $ 20,000, up to $ 20,000, and $ 20,000 worth $ 30 billion to Americans.
The overall influence of CBC has spoken to the United States, until the U.S. progress until the United States, but at the same time in the event of a night and the economy may damage the economy.
“I feel it’s for a reason, and I hope it works all because you know, because he really said. He says that he will do it and then.”
“It’s annoying, but there is a 90-day break, and hopefully he will help.” “I do not know what happened to what happened, to tell the truth and tell the truth. I wanted to say, I do not know what happened.”
Another dealer owner, George Glassman, is not a complaint from going for sale now, and it is concerned about the future.
“Anxiety will be concerned about what the tariffs mean or will mean. Thus, if someone can buy a car today or lease a car, there is certainty to know what the road will be.”
The second generation owner of the car park in the city of Detroit of his family sells both new and new vehicles. Hyundai, Kia, Subaru, Creation and Mitsubishi also carry a number of foreign brands.
“Currently, customers are included in recipient vehicles with pretty good numbers and all cars in the earth,” he said.
During the second week of April, the glass owner estimated that the 60-day fare vehicles were supplied in his draw.
‘It’s Years and Years’
According to Kelley Blue BookThe average car brand was a 91-day product supply and was in the 70s until the end. The automatic data provider said that in March, the national sales pace is more than 17 percent more than February.
Although tariffs dictate new cars, supply and demand, the supply of cars used will decrease to find a competitive vehicle for consumers, and therefore will create an increase in these vehicles.
Clock | In Detroit, how the auto industry responds to the tide of higher prices:
There is an increase in new car sales for drivers to prevent the effects of tariffs. But the sellers are pretty for what’s next. The CBC is going to go to Detroch to find out how David responds to the tidal of general prices.
Despite the uncertainty, the glass man is optimistic that the tariff-related talks can have a result.
“I don’t think nobody can imagine the amount of what is happening now. And he said that I think there will be any talks.
Like others, the glass man sees the great picture of Trump, but understand how much time it takes to the fruit.
“I do not think that no one is the aim of more vegetables that produce more vehicles in the United States, it is not something we will see in any short term. It has been years and years“

Jato Dynamics Analyst Felipe Munoz crushed numbers and argued A large trunk of detroitis – General Motors, Ford and Stellantis – more exposure Tariffs compared to many foreign brands.
“I would say that some of these two countries, Canada and Mexico’s products from these two countries are mainly due to production of these cars.
According to him, American carmealers have prepared cheaper cars in Canada and Mexico in competitive prices in the United States and are threatened in competitive prices and are threatened. ”
Munoz said that although it is expedient to increase the local carmates of the new trade policy, some of them seriously rely on domestic sales compared to rivals, they will be affected by their little global.
At the moment, it is not clear whether or not the motility industry will take a break with tariffs, but Trump has been swindled.
On April 14 He told reporters “I’m not changing my mind, but I’m flexible, but in the president’s whims of the president, but already in the industry.
Until then, it shows that the assumptions will continue to accelerate.
