So it seems it's just back to what China was always charging and therefore should have no added impact? So no one seemed to worry about Chinese demand for BMWs over the last decade of 25% tariffs. I know there are a lot of Trump haters here, but he is ultimately trying to get that 25% down which would help BMW and the USA. It seemed to temporarily work back in May and I'm still optimistic that when this is all said and done we will overall be in a better place with reduced tariffs that will have a positive impact on Americans.
It's 15% + 25% for ex-US, so 40% total.
