American Automotive Policy Council president Matt Blunt said Wednesday U.S. companies and workers “are at a disadvantage” because they face a 50% tariff on steel and aluminum and a 25% tariff on parts and finished vehicles not covered under a trade deal with Canada and Mexico

Michigan 6th district Congresswoman Debbie Dingell says if President-Elect Donald Trump goes through with his pledge to place a 25% tariff on all goods coming from Mexico and Canada, he should first give the auto industry time to plan ahead

Big profits from pricey trucks and SUVs that paid to develop and build electric vehicles are starting to wane.

The expansion of EV production will preserve jobs and could create new ones, depending on how fast the nation transitions from gas engines to batteries.

The poll found that 36% of Americans sympathize with the workers in their dispute with the automakers, 9% support the automakers, and the rest back both or neither.

United Auto Workers likely to strike at more plants Friday.

Talk of a strike grow louder.
