In a strategic move to soften the blow of impending auto tariffs, President Donald Trump introduced a series of credits and adjustments to his tariff policies on Tuesday.

These actions, including a temporary relief for carmakers, aim to address investor worries as Trump navigates the complexities of global trade from Michigan, a hub of the American auto industry.

While some in the auto sector see these adjustments as a temporary reprieve, industry leaders urge comprehensive solutions to ensure stability amid ongoing trade uncertainties.
