There are currently no specific tariffs or quotas on trucks.
However, the Secretary of Commerce initiated a Section 232 investigation on April 25, 2025, into whether imports of cargo trucks threaten to impair national security. This investigation covers the following:
- medium-duty trucks; i.e., those with a gross vehicle weight of more than 10,000 and under 26,001 pounds
- heavy-duty trucks; i.e., those with a gross vehicle weight rating of 26,001 pounds or more
- individual components and systems of such trucks, including engines and engine parts, transmissions and powertrain parts, and electrical components
Comments may be submitted by May 16, 2025.
ST&R offers a three-pronged approach for avoiding, mitigating, and/or recovering these and other tariffs. For more information on which of these strategies might be most effective for your business, please contact ST&R.
