Will the Mustang cost 25% more starting from tomorrow?

[GrabThatBlue]

Starting tomorrow, the tarifs for Canadian products will be taxed at 25% by the USA.

As a reaction, Canada is going to tax USA products with 25% tax.

Will the Mustang costs 25% more starting from tomorrow? What I also knownis that Mustang parts are crossing borders frequently, which can mean that parts can get taxed over and over again.

I really wonder how this will affect the already over priced Mustang.

It is something to watch but cost won't be a flat 25% increase. Certain items will go up 25% but not the whole product. We watch this stuff closely for all of our EPC projects. These tariffs will increase costs for most markets but there are so many other factors that go into cost.

For my filter business (ThInK Auto Tech), our product is 100% American made with American materials but cost will increase due to materials for the manufacturer (steel for molds, tools, machinery) all increasing.

The Mustang is built in the USA. The ultimate goal of the tariffs is to motivate companies to come back into the USA and build here with American labor and American steel. Short term pains to insure the future for our kids. We are also getting a microchip manufacturer back , which if you know , you know.....

It's built in the USA, but Canada also placed tariffs on USA products as a reaction.
So the Mustang might be more expensive in Canada which can drop the sales.

I'm sorry , that is true. I was looking at it from a US perspective. I would imagine any new cars brought in would go up in Canada.. Anyone on the fence with a price locked in , better jump now.

And the Coyote engine is made in Canada. So I wonder how that will work out LOL.

The one thing tariffs are guaranteed to do is get the AI trolls here to post up about how much more the Mustang is going to cost, and crow about EV adoption.

The increased expense of tariffs on parts (and ultimately the end product: mustang) will be passed along to the consumers to deal with. Companies almost never absorb those costs unless they are stuck in contractual agreements.

Passing along that expense will happen when the companies all across the supply chain that supply parts for the OEM have time to calculate the new increase, start paying the increase themselves, and have the elevated cost trickle down to the increased cost of the end product. That might take time but it will happen.

Wisconsin was supposed to get a Foxconn plant too...never happened

I guess we should just give up then. It's useless to try and revitalize American manufacturing because that one Taiwanese LCD production plant project fell through in Wisconsin back in 2017...

Nobody said that.

Just saying you hear this is going to happen or this will happen and nothing ends up happening

Just like I thought. The 3 big American car manufactures got a 1 month exemption to find a solution because they complained about cars and car parts would be too expensive to produce.

Now they got 1 month the time to bring all the production back to the USA to avoid the 25% tariffs.

Does this mean that the coyote engine factory is going to close in Ontario and open up in the US. They can't solve this in a month.

Whatever they going to do, this will cause a huge collapse in the automotive industry.

Detroit is going to get into a new auto crisis.

I hope so and still a bargain.
