Germany has launched an 11th-hour bid to avert a full-scale trade war between Europe and China, resisting French calls to hit Chinese electric vehicles with punitive duties.The EU now charges a 10 percent tariff on all car imports — below China’s 15 percent. Realizing that it won’t be able to avert the tariffs, Germany is now pushing to keep them as low as possible, ideally on a reciprocal level that China also imposes on the EU — meaning 15 percent.“Something around 20-30 percent would give European manufacturers some breathing space to accelerate their investments in the sector and maintain their market share in Europe,” Elvire Fabry, senior research fellow at the Jacques Delors Institute in Paris, said.Yet even the highest rumored duty — 25 percent — would not be enough to deter Chinese brands thanks to their huge cost and technology advantages. Chinese EV sales into Europe grew by 23 percent, to nearly 120,000 units, in the first four months of this year.“They can lower their prices and continue to be competitive. We’ve seen that happen in France already,” Matthias Schmidt, a European auto analyst, said.
