Jeep maker Stellantis says it will lose $2.7 billion due partly to tariffs [View all]

President Donald Trump’s tariffs are costing Jeep maker Stellantis hundreds of millions of dollars, the company said Monday.

The giant carmaker expects to have suffered nearly $350 million in losses over the first half of 2025 due to direct tariff payments as well as a loss of planned production on account of the company's response to the policy, preliminary data showed.

The losses also include compliance charges with Trump’s suspension of financial penalties tied to fuel emissions standards.

Sales in North America plummeted by one-quarter over a three month period ending in June, when compared to the same period a year earlier. The steep decline owed in part to the “reduced manufacture and shipments of imported vehicles, most impacted by tariffs,” Stellantis said.
