Trump announces auto tariffs set to begin around April 2

President Donald Trump announced plans to impose tariffs on imported cars starting around April 2. He mentioned this during a press briefing in the Oval Office, explaining a change from an earlier proposed date of April 1. The exact details of the tariffs remain unclear. Trump previously suggested tariffs could be as high as 50 or 100 percent on imported vehicles, criticizing Canada for its impact on the U.S. auto industry. Earlier this month, Trump paused 25 percent tariffs on all Canadian exports until early March. He has also signed an order for tariffs on foreign steel and aluminum, including imports from Canada.
