The Hill: Ford halts shipments of F-150s and other models to China: Report [View all]

The Hill - Ford halts shipments of F-150s and other models to China: Report

• WSJ: Ford has stopped shipping F-150 Raptors and other models to China
• The decision comes in response to retaliatory measures by China
• Ford confirmed to NewsNation that it has 'adjusted' exports to the country

Ford Motor has halted shipments of SUVs, pick-up trucks and sports cars to China due to retaliatory tariffs from President Trump’s trade war.

This week, the company stopped shipping F-150 Raptors, Mustang muscle cars, Michigan-built Bronco SUVs and Kentucky-made Lincoln Navigators to China, The Wall Street Journal reported Friday, citing people familiar with the matter.

China’s retaliatory measures in response to U.S. import taxes have raised duties on those vehicles as high as 150 percent, WSJ said.

“We have adjusted exports from the U.S. to China in light of the current tariffs,” a Ford spokesperson confirmed in an email to NewsNation, but it did not say which models were affected.
