Calls for Restricting Chinese Electric Vehicle Imports Grow Amid Security Concerns

President Joe Biden is facing increased pressure to ban imports of Chinese-made electric vehicles (EVs) into the United States, with significant concerns over national security and competitive fairness being voiced by key lawmakers. Senator Sherrod Brown, chair of the Senate Banking Committee and a Democrat from the auto-producing state of Ohio, has described Chinese electric vehicles as an “existential threat” to the American auto industry. His remarks reflect the strongest stance taken by any US lawmaker on this issue to date. In addition to calls for an outright ban, there have been suggestions from various quarters for imposing steep tariffs on Chinese EVs to curb their entry into the U.S. market. In response to these concerns, the White House announced in February that it had initiated an investigation to assess whether Chinese vehicles constitute a national security risk.

Senator Brown, who is campaigning for a fourth term in office in the upcoming November elections, expressed his concerns about the potential implications of allowing Chinese government-backed enterprises to compete in the American auto market. He highlighted fears that the technology embedded in Chinese-made cars could enable the collection of sensitive data on American drivers and passengers, including interactions with U.S. infrastructure. The Biden administration has acknowledged the potential risks, pointing out that vehicles connected to the internet could use their cameras and sensors to record detailed information, interact with critical infrastructure, and be controlled remotely. This has raised alarms about the vulnerability of national security. The concerns extend beyond the auto industry. On the same day, leading U.S. airlines urged the administration to stop approving new flights between the U.S. and China, citing China’s “damaging anti-competitive policies” which they argue disadvantage American carriers and could harm U.S. workers and businesses if left unchecked.

The backdrop to these developments is the ongoing trade war between the world’s two largest economies, initiated in 2018 under President Donald Trump with the imposition of significant tariffs on Chinese goods. Despite a change in administration, President Biden has largely maintained these tariffs. The trade tensions have had a notable impact on bilateral trade, with a significant reduction in the value of goods the U.S. imports from China and a slight decrease in U.S. exports to China last year. As discussions continue, the administration has not yet responded to inquiries about these issues, leaving industry watchers and policymakers awaiting further actions that may redefine the landscape of U.S.-China economic relations.
