The EU and China are reportedly nearing a framework to replace EU tariffs on Chinese EVs with minimum price undertakings assessed on a manufacturer-by-manufacturer basis. Despite tariffs, Chinese automakers expanded in Europe in 2025, reinforcing incentives for a negotiated settlement and accelerating interest in EU-based production.
The source indicates the EU moved in early 2026 from additional tariffs on Chinese EVs toward negotiated minimum import price undertakings, while Chinese manufacturers expand localization to sustain European growth. Canada reportedly reduced duties within a quota framework in January 2026, contrasting with the US maintaining a 100% tariff barrier.
