福特稱一款小型車生產線將留在中國

Ford says it has no plans to move production of a small car from China to the United States despite President Donald Trump's enthusiastic tweet Sunday.

"It would not be profitable to the build the Focus Active in the U.S. given an expected annual sales volume of fewer than 50,000 units," a Ford statement said.

Ford earlier announced it would not ship the cars from China to the United States because tariffs would make them too expensive, prompting a Trump tweet saying "This is just the beginning. This car can now be BUILT IN THE U.S.A. and Ford will pay no tariffs."

Ford may keep building the Focus Active in China, but won't not sell them in the United States.

Trump has imposed tariffs on $50 billion in Chinese imports to remedy what he calls unfair Chinese trade practices. China has retaliated and both countries threaten more tariffs.福特汽車公司說，沒有計劃把在中國生產的一款小型汽車改在美國生產，儘管特朗普總統星期天在推特上發出了鼓勵信息。

福特在一份聲明中說，“鑑於福克斯Active在美國的年銷售量預計不超過5萬輛，在美國生產這款汽車將無利可圖。”

不過之前福特宣佈說，由於關稅會導致汽車價格太昂貴而不會把這些汽車從中國運回美國。特朗普總統隨即發推表示：“這只是剛剛開始。這款車現在可以在美國製造，福特不用交任何關稅！”

福特可能繼續在中國生產福克斯Active，不過不會在美國銷售這些汽車。

特朗普行政當局已經開始對總額500億美元的中國進口商品加徵關稅，以糾正他所說的中國不公平的貿易手段。中國隨後進行報復，對同等額度的美國商品加徵關稅。兩國都威脅要增加更多關稅。
