本周三，特斯拉股价暴跌10%，收报380.36美元，较8月31日创下的收盘历史高位纪录498.32美元下跌约24%。当天早些时候，特斯拉首席执行官埃隆·马斯克宣布，公司将在三年内推出2.5万美元一辆的“廉价”自动驾驶汽车。

The USTR last year denied Tesla‘s bid to avoid tariffs of 25 percent on the Chinese-made computer and display screens it uses in its Model 3 electric car。 At the time， the company argued that the increased cost imposed by the tariffs would cause economic harm through the increase of costs and impact to profitability。

In 2018， the company estimated that additional tariffs on parts sourced from China would decrease gross profit by 50 million U.S。 dollars in the fourth quarter of the year。

Tesla shares on Wednesday tumbled 10 percent to 380.36 U.S。 dollars after its annual “Battery Day” event， in which its CEO Elon Musk said the company will cut costs to build a cheap electric car with a price tag of 25，000 U.S。 dollars in three years。

特斯拉并不“孤单”。据英国《卫报》报道，沃尔沃、福特及梅赛德斯-奔驰也已对特朗普政府提起诉讼，以期阻止美方对中国进口的物品“任意”征收关税。

梅赛德斯-奔驰在诉讼文件中指责特朗普政府“发起了一场史无前例、无边界、无限制的贸易战，影响到从中国进口的逾5000亿美元的产品”。

报道指出，中国是世界上最大的汽车市场，也是诸多汽车制造商业务的主要增长点。

特朗普政府对中国发起贸易战并肆意加征关税的做法，不仅引起了美国企业的不满，也遭到了美国媒体的讽刺。《纽约时报》曾评价道，“

特朗普其实是在给美国人加税”，CNBC则发文称“增加关税并没有给美国人带来好处”。

Other automakers， including General Motors， Volvo， Ford and Mercedes-Benz have also joined the battle to sue the U.S。 government because of the increasing costs caused by additional tariffs on auto parts from China， AFP reported。

Mercedes-Benz argued that U.S。 law “did not confer authority on defendants to litigate a vast trade war for however long， and by whatever means， they choose，” AFP reported。
