Stellantis NV announced Thursday that it will lay off 900 of its workers in the United States following President Donald Trump’s tariffs announcement Wednesday.
The automaker—formerly Fiat Chrysler Automobiles—also added that it would temporarily pause production at two assembly plants in Canada and Mexico.
The announcement comes after Trump’s massive “Liberation Day” tariffs, which include 25 percent tariffs on imported vehicles, which S&P Global Mobility reported accounted for around 46 percent of the vehicles sold in the U.S. last year.
