Audi's $4 billion Georgia plant could win it US tariff relief

Audi's planned $4 billion factory at the Middle Georgia Megasite is reportedly tied to talks on lowering US tariffs on its EU-built imports. Audi currently pays 15% and has pushed for 7.5%, while Commerce officials are said to be weighing about 10%. The plant, targeting 200,000 vehicles a year and 4,500 jobs, still awaits Volkswagen board approval.
