Analysis-Japanese automakers may import some of their own US-built cars, in move aimed at Trump
Update: 2025-10-30
Description
Japanese automakers, including Toyota and Nissan, are considering importing American-made cars to Japan to improve trade relations with President Trump, who has criticized Japan's trade surplus with the U.S. The move is symbolic, as only around 20,000 cars a year might be imported, and it would require harmonizing safety standards and addressing Japanese drivers' preferences for smaller, fuel-efficient vehicles. The main goal is to demonstrate a commitment to fair trade and potentially ease trade tensions.
