​Trump Policies Power U.S. Auto Sales to Best Year Since 2019 — Proving “Experts” Wrong (Again)

Picture
Earlier this year, analysts claimed President Donald J. Trump’s Made in America trade agenda would “deal a serious blow to automakers,” “cut sales by millions,” and “increase prices.”

These so-called “experts” could not have been more wrong:
  • In 2025, new U.S. vehicle sales rose by 2.4% — the industry’s strongest performance since 2019. 

  • Automakers are thriving.
    • Ford reported its best annual sales since 2019.
    • General Motors saw its overall vehicle sales soar, posting its best year for SUV sales in decades.
    • Stellantis increased its Jeep brand sales for the first time since 2018.
    • Honda posted its best U.S. sales performance since 2021.
    • Hyundai achieved record U.S. sales.

  • Tariffs have had no negative effect on vehicle prices.

This success validates President Trump’s all-out push to Make Driving Great Again:
  • Americans purchasing made-in-America vehicles can now deduct auto loan interest, thanks to President Trump’s historic One Big Beautiful Bill.

  • President Trump’s trade agenda has spurred massive investments in U.S. production from automakers, including Ford, Hyundai, Stellantis, General Motors, Honda, Toyota, Scout Motors, Rolls-Royce, Mercedes-Benz, Kia, Nissan, and others.

  • President Trump’s reversed burdensome Biden-era fuel economy standards that would have added nearly $1,000 to the average new vehicle cost — saving Americans billions over the coming years.

  • The Trump Administration also eliminated the unpopular vehicle stop-start requirement, approved production of affordable and efficient “tiny cars,” revoked state-level electric vehicle mandates, and took numerous other steps to reverse hidden vehicle cost increases imposed by Democrats.
