Tariffs May Add Almost $2,000 Price On Average, But It's A Wide Range
Vehicles queued up for export in Bremerhaven, Germany. New tariffs on imported vehicles and auto parts are likely to raise the consumer cost per new vehicle by an average of almost $2,000, but that average includes a very wide range for specific vehicles, from less than $1,000 to as much as $5,000, depending on where vehicles and their parts come from, according to an analysis from AlixPartners. 'We don't think it will be spread out evenly,' said Mark Wakefield, Global Automotive Market Lead at AlixPartners. The impact is also likely to be difficult to attribute directly to tariffs, Wakefield said in a phone interview. Manufacturers will likely avoid adding a line item on the price tag, specifically for tariffs, he said. Rather, the effects are more likely to be passed along in the form of higher or lower incentives, or more or fewer product features. 'Manufacturers Suggested Retail Price will probably be the last thing we see change,' Wakefield said. 'It's incentives, finance rates, dropping residuals,' which will change instead, he said. Manipulating residual values on leases is a common way for manufacturers to raise or lower monthly payments without changing the sticker price, and without advertising the change as blatantly as the presence or absence of a cash rebate would, or a cut-rate loan on a purchase. In leasing, the customer finances the difference between the up-front price of the vehicle, minus the residual value, an estimate of how much the vehicle will be worth at the end of the lease. A higher residual value means the customer has to borrow less. A lower residual means the customer has to borrow more. In a separate analysis, from J.D. Power and Global Data, analysts said vehicle prices are expected to rise overall, but less than the full amount of the tariff-related increase. 'It will likely be at year's end before manufacturers' new pricing and incentive strategies fully materialize,' the two firms said in a joint forecast.
