General Discussion / USA vs. World custom duties war
« on: June 23, 2018, 02:28:49 PM »
At first, the president decided to raise duties on imported steel and aluminium.
Then he said this would only impact China and not EU.
Later he made an agreement with China, not raising any tax against them.
Therefore he empowered the taxes against EU.
Now EU replicated with import taxes on US products like peanut butter, cranberries, flight recorders and motorcycles....
And now the cars imported to USA shall be hit.
Would this impact Zero Motorcycles? Of course everybody in EU only knows "HD".
Therefore I checked the details of the new import duties in EU, and found the description of the taxed items as "motorcycles with ICE...".
Good news, Zero should not suffer sales losses in EU due to this war. Maybe a marginal increase in raw material cost due to the US duties on aluminium.
Come on, HD, it's more than ever time to go electric!
