With regards to the comment request from the United States, the EU sent a letter to the Commerce Department's national security division on Friday stating that the 25 percent import on car and automotive parts would initially have a negative effect on the US GDP as much as 13-14 billion USD while the current US account balance will not have any positive impact according to Politico reports.
