Tariffs Make BMW Raise Prices in China

Tariffs Make BMW Raise Prices in China

BMW raises prices of cars its sells in China, following the nation’s higher import tariffs on U.S.-made automobiles.

Prices of BMW’s X5 and X6 models are now respectively 4% and 7% higher in China. The German auto behemoth exported around 81,000 cars from its South Carolina manufacturing unit to China last year, which contributed around $2.4 billion revenues for the company.

BMW is one of the major players to have been hit by the U.S.-China ‘trade war’ in recent times. Following U.S. levies on $34 billion worth of Chinese imports, China retaliated by taxing an equal amount of American goods imported into its nation.
