U.S. imports of automobile & light duty motor vehicle manufacturing (NAICS 336110) totaled $17.6B in July 2026, traded with 44 countries.
Importers of Automobile & Light Duty Motor Vehicle Manufacturing paid $2.3B in duties in July 2026 — an effective duty rate of 13% on $17.1B in dutiable value, based on actual customs collections rather than the published tariff schedule.
Last updated: July 2026 dataAutomobile and light-duty motor vehicle manufacturing encompasses the full assembly process — from stamping and powertrain integration to final vehicle build — for passenger cars, light trucks, and SUVs. From a trade perspective, this NAICS code is the production-side counterpart to the import classifications that trigger Section 232 review and USMCA content verification. Manufacturers sourcing foreign-origin components must track regional value content at the part level to maintain USMCA compliance for vehicles assembled in North America. The shift toward battery electric vehicles is also reshaping component sourcing patterns and the applicability of emerging trade measures targeting EV supply chains.

USMCA requires that a specified percentage of a qualifying vehicle's value be produced by workers earning above a defined wage threshold in North America. Manufacturers must track high-wage material and manufacturing expenditures at the part and assembly level, which adds significant compliance burden when sourcing components from outside the region.
At the HTS level, BEVs are generally classified based on vehicle type and weight, similar to ICE vehicles, but the classification of their components — particularly battery packs and electric motors — follows distinct headings. Emerging trade measures and domestic content incentives under US law are increasingly differentiated by powertrain type, making component-level classification a growing compliance priority.
