Jaguar halts shipments to US amid tariffs

The British maker of Jaguar and Land Rover cars is pausing shipments to the US as it works to mitigate the impact of a 25 per cent tax on vehicle imports imposed by the Trump Administration.

Jaguar Land Rover Automotive, one of Britain’s biggest carmakers, said Saturday that the pause would take place this month.

The USA is an important market for JLR’s “luxury brands,” the company said in a statement. “As we work to address the new trading terms without business partners, we are taking some short-term actions including a shipment pause in April, as we develop our mid-to longer term plans.”
