Electric vehicles (EVs) are a key industry for clean energy and carbon reduction. Before 2024, major countries focused on building market awareness and encouraging carmakers to transition to EV production. However, as China solidifies its position as a global leader in the EV market and aggressively expands overseas, concerns about overcapacity, dumping, and unfair competition have grown worldwide. In response, Turkey, the U.S., Europe, and Canada introduced policies in 2024 to impose or increase tariffs on EV imports from China, making EVs a focal point of geopolitical tensions.

This report analyzes the evolving tariff landscape for EVs, with a particular focus on the United States, Turkey, and Europe. It also examines the potential impact of U.S. and European tariffs on Chinese EVs, highlighting how these measures shape the global EV supply chain.
