General Motors faces significant financial repercussions due to the newly implemented 25% tariffs on vehicles and auto parts, which directly affect this major automaker more so than its competitors. Being heavily invested in production facilities in Mexico and Canada, GM's extensive reliance on these regions for manufacturing results in a sizeable portion of its portfolio—55% of vehicles sold in the U.S.—being subject to the tariffs. This situation could lead to increased vehicle costs, reduced market competitiveness, and potential sales declines due to higher consumer prices. The financial hit is exacerbated by the intertwined nature of the auto industry's supply chain and could further lead to strategic shifts in production or sourcing decisions.
