What Changed

Section 301 US tariffs are imposing 25% duties on Chinese radar modules, while EU tariffs impose 10% on Chinese EV radar components as of October 2026. These trade measures force supply chain rerouting and cost adjustments for global vehicle platforms relying on Chinese module manufacturing. Procurement teams must audit component origins to minimize duty exposure.
