US set to impose 100% tariff on Chinese electric vehicle imports
美国将对中国电动汽车进口征收100%关税
The Biden administration plans to raise tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles imports from 25 per cent to 100 per cent, as it intensifies efforts ahead of the US election to protect American industry.
拜登政府计划把对中国输美电动汽车征收的关税从25%提高到100%，以期在大选前加大保护美国工业的力度。
The administration is expected to announce the move, and other tariffs on clean energy imports, on Tuesday, according to people familiar with the situation.
知情人士称，预计拜登政府将在下周二宣布上述举措以及其他针对清洁能源进口产品的关税。
The sharp rise in the levies comes amid mounting concern that China could flood the US market with cheap EVs, threatening the American car industry. President Joe Biden has taken several actions in recent months to convince union members in swing states that he will protect jobs.
大幅上调这项关税的背景是，人们越来越担忧中国产的廉价电动汽车可能充斥美国市场，威胁到美国的汽车工业。乔•拜登(Joe Biden)总统近几个月来采取了多项行动，力求让摇摆州的工会成员相信他会保护就业。
