Mercedes, Porsche Cut Forecasts as US Tariffs Hammer German Cars

Mercedes-Benz Group AG and Porsche AG scaled back their profit expectations for the year, underscoring the toll President Donald Trump's trade war is taking on some of Europe's largest luxury-car makers. The two German manufacturers on Wednesday flagged the twin pressures of new US tariffs and intensifying competition in China, where an electric-vehicle price war is undermining demand for pricier models. Mercedes now expects its carmaking margin to slide as low as 4%, from at least 6% previously, as the duties weigh on pricing and sales. Porsche, which lacks a US factory, cut its outlook for the third time this year after Trump's deal on Sunday with the European Union slapped 15% tariffs on autos imported from the bloc. Aston Martin Lagonda Global Holdings Plc also walked back forecasts on Wednesday, a day after Stellantis NV warned that the US duties will weigh on the Jeep maker's already struggling North American business. The mounting trade barriers are adding to a structural shift in China, where a fierce EV price war led by local brands including BYD Co. is eroding margins. Porsche and Mercedes have struggled to gain traction in the world's biggest auto market with their more premium models like the Taycan and the EQS, the battery-powered version of Mercedes' flagship S-Class limousine. Meanwhile, Chinese automakers such as BYD and Geely are pushing into Europe's stagnant car market. 'We continue to face significant challenges around the world,' Porsche Chief Executive Officer Oliver Blume said. 'And this is not a storm that will pass.' The sports-car maker controlled by Volkswagen AG is trying to get back on its feet by replacing several top managers, slashing costs further — including through job cuts — and adding more combustion-engine and plug-in hybrid models. The US recently overtook China as Porsche's single biggest market, but the company has no local factory and imports all of the cars it sells there from Europe. One of several options being considered as part of parent Volkswagen's US production expansion is final assembly of Porsche models there, Bloomberg previously reported. Mercedes plans to shift production of the GLC SUV to the US to offset the charges. For Mercedes, the headwinds are undermining a strategy initiated in 2022 to bolster profitability by shifting further upmarket. The company is prioritizing its most lucrative offerings — such as Maybach limousines, AMG performance models and the G-Wagon — while scaling back lower-margin entry-level cars like the compact A-Class. But the US duties and the poor China performance are weighing on Mercedes' pricing and sales, and the company warned that group revenue for 2025 will come in significantly below last year's level. In the second quarter, Mercedes' automaking margin dropped to 5.1% — well below levels associated with the luxury push started by CEO Ola Källenius. The company also flagged weaker demand for vans and declining revenue in its mobility services division as drags on performance. Mercedes shares declined as much as 2% in Frankfurt. The stock is down around 1% this year. Porsche rose 2.3% as of 10:12 a.m. local time as analysts pointed to better-than-expected revenue and cash flow. The company's shares are still down more than a fifth this year. Porsche flagged that its return on sales for the year could slide as low as 5%, having previously targeted at least 6.5%. The updated forecast includes the US tariff hit and roughly €1.3 billion of costs related to the brand's strategic reset. Mercedes and Porsche are among automakers most exposed to trade friction. They faced a 27.5% levy on vehicles exported from the EU to the US for much of the second quarter. Mercedes also exports SUVs built at its Alabama plant to China, where they incurred duties exceeding 100% before a mid-May trade truce reduced the rate to about 35%. The German company earlier this year withdrew its guidance in response to Trump's trade moves and on Wednesday reinstated it. Without the impact of tariffs, Mercedes' carmaking margin would remain within the prior 6% to 8% guidance range, the company said. Profitability also got hit by restructuring measures, including a voluntary redundancy program for back-office staff and the sale of its van operations in Argentina.

No degree, big invention: Andhra man develops 2-in-1 transport vehicle

KAKINADA: Ambition and activeness can lead to innovative ideas, as proven by Rayavarapu Sudheer Anvesh Kumar, who has developed a shape-shifting, expandable vehicle without any engineering degree or diploma. Remarkably, the vehicle operates on battery power and a hydraulic system. Sudheer chose a four-seater Jeep model that can shrink in width to function like a bike, allowing it to move through heavy traffic with ease. If driven by a single person in congested areas, it can be reduced to the width of a bike to navigate forward smoothly. He aims to solve traffic issues, even in busy cities like Bengaluru or Hyderabad. Speaking with TNIE, Sudheer shared that he has many more innovative ideas in the pipeline. Originally from Vijayawada, Sudheer's family relocated to Kakinada a few years ago. Despite his interest in engineering, he couldn't pursue technical education due to his father's illness and subsequent death. Instead, he completed a computer course in 2014 and later moved to Hyderabad for employment. While working in Hyderabad and Bengaluru, Sudheer frequently encountered heavy traffic, which inspired him to design an alternative mode of transport that could easily navigate traffic congestion. Noticing how bikes could maneuver through traffic while cars remained stuck, he conceptualized a vehicle that could switch between car and bike mode automatically.

European car market tumbles 7% in June

PARIS: Europe's new car market saw a sharp seven-percent year-on-year drop in June, with top economies Germany, France and Italy posting especially steep declines, according to automobile manufacturers' figures published on Thursday. The continent's car industry has laboured under an uncertain global economic outlook overshadowed by US President Donald Trump's threats of tariffs, as well as stiff competition from China, notably on the key electric vehicles market. According to the European Automobile Manufacturers' Association (ACEA), European sales dipped two-percent in the first half of 2025, with petrol and diesel models posting sharp 21 and 28 percent declines respectively. Hybrid models have caught up to fill in the gap, with sales rising 17 percent and the sector now representing more than a third of the market. Fully electric vehicles, seen as essential to the world's transition to a low-carbon economy in an age of man-made climate change, likewise saw sales rise, albeit at a more modest 22 percent compared to the massive expansions of previous years. Despite government subsidies to encourage more people to drive electric, such "EVs" only represent under 16 percent of the European market. "We are still far from reaching mass adoption," said the ACEA, which represents the continent's 16 major car, truck, van and bus makers. "Consumers clearly remain cautious, and more robust demand measures will remain a crucial element to get the transition up to speed," said the ACEA, which wants CO2 emission standards to be revised. Hinting at the looming threat of US tariffs, the ACEA said: "What is very also concerning for manufacturers is the notable drop in new registrations at a time when we already face an increasingly unpredictable trade environment and other threats to competitiveness." Jeep maker Stellantis suffered the worst June decline, with Europe's number two carmaker selling 30,000 fewer cars, or a 16 percent fall. Its Fiat and Citroen lines were worst-affected, with both brands in the middle of a shake-up to their models on offer. Top producer Volkswagen saw an around average eight-percent decline, while podium-placed Renault saw just a half-percent drop. Both Japan's Toyota and South Korea's Hyundai-Kia also saw around 10,000 fewer sales in June, with their market shares declining in the first half of the year.
