奧迪是唯一在美國未設組裝廠的德國品牌,近年因關稅成本與中國市場銷量下滑面臨獲利壓力。
綜合《彭博》、《華爾街日報》報導,美國總統川普24日在喬治亞州佩里市(Perry)的選舉造勢活動上捍衛其關稅政策,並宣布德國福斯集團旗下品牌奧迪汽車將斥資42億美元(新台幣1365.3億元),在該州的第5大城市梅肯(Macon)建造美國首座組裝廠,成為全球大型車廠在美國投資的最新行動。
川普表示:「我很高興地宣布,1家很棒的公司將在偉大的喬治亞州進行1筆巨大的汽車製造投資,這座廠房每年將生產20萬輛汽車,廠房將從下個月開始建造。想想看,1年20萬輛汽車,那實在了不起,這將是當代美國汽車產業史上最大的單筆投資,沒有關稅政策,他們就不會來美國。」
陪同川普站在講台上的奧迪執行長高德諾(Gernot Dollner)則說:「我們計畫把我們最大和最豪華的休旅車帶到美國,並在梅肯市製造。這是個長期的投資,因為我們相信美國市場。」
奧迪指出,這座工廠將僱用約4500名工人,預計在2030年代初期開始量產。
奧迪對喬治亞州的投資計劃對川普而言是一大勝利,在11月3日的期中大選,該州是個激戰區,民主黨競選連任的聯邦參議院奧索夫(Jon Ossoff)將迎戰共和黨對手柯林斯(Mike Collins),目前奧索夫支持度處於領先地位。而共和黨提名的州長候選人、億萬富豪傑克森(Rick Jackson)則與民主黨候選人、前亞特蘭大市市長波托姆斯(Keisha L. Bottoms),支持度不分軒輊。
奧迪是唯一在美國沒設組裝廠的德國品牌,包括它的姊妹品牌福斯汽車、競爭對手寶馬汽車和賓士汽車,都在美國南部州設廠,並向全球出口。這使得奧迪很難避開美國的關稅。奧迪2025年被迫調高幾種車款的價格以抵銷關稅,卻導致獲利下降約12億歐元(新台幣437.1億元),今年預料也面臨同樣的情況。
在美國關稅成本增加之際,奧迪在中國則面臨銷售下滑,因中國消費者近年來都改買本土品牌。2025年奧迪在中國的銷量年減19%,這成為奧迪在美國投資設廠的主因。
