They think of ways to boost profits that don't incur President Trump's levying ire of tariffs, such as shifting manufacturing of the cars to the shores of the US (that is preferred by the US Administration), and Mazda thinks it may avoid the tariffs by cutting costs to make the cars. The general theme in Japan seems to be avoid getting to pay out on tariffs if at all possible! Incidentally, Toyota has in mind to manufacture its EVs in Japan itself--at least luring more home folks to consider buying them.
Perhaps, cut back on advertising? Who knows, especially when one considers any changes in tariffs that President Trump considers making is subject to further change!
In short, what country's car makers will influence Trump to come up with yet another scheme to alter tariff rates compared to some present schedule?
My opinion.
