General Motors is set to report its Q1 2025 earnings, with analysts expecting $2.74 adjusted EPS and $43.05 billion revenue. Investors are more focused on the company's 2025 guidance due to uncertainty caused by President Trump's 25% auto tariffs, which have led to downgrades in GM's stock by several Wall Street analysts.

US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced that a deal has been reached with automakers to ease tariffs on imported cars and auto parts. The deal, set to be made official by President Donald Trump on Tuesday, could grant relief to the beleaguered auto industry, which has been lobbying against the tariffs. The tariffs, imposed by the Trump administration, have been criticized for potentially raising car prices, reducing supply, and disrupting global supply chains. Automakers such as General Motors, Toyota, and Hyundai have welcomed the news, with shares in Asian carmakers jumping in response.

The Trump administration plans to ease the impact of tariffs on imported cars and car parts by modifying the tariffs to prevent them from being 'stacked' with other tariffs and reimbursing automakers for some of the costs. The 25% tariff on imported vehicles and parts will remain in place, but automakers will not have to pay additional tariffs on metals like steel and aluminum. The reimbursement will be up to 3.75% of the value of a new car in the first year, phased out over two years. Automakers have welcomed the change, but the tariffs will still raise prices for new and used cars, repairs, and insurance premiums.

President Trump signed two executive orders modifying tariffs on carmakers, providing relief to companies like Ford and General Motors. The changes exempt certain imports from additional tariffs and allow automakers to qualify for tariff relief on imported components. However, the 25% tariff on imported vehicles remains in place, and analysts warn that the administration's policies will still raise car prices and threaten the financial health of automakers and suppliers.
