China says have invited EU technical team over for next phase of EV negotiations

  • For some context, the EU pressed ahead with Chinese EV tariffs earlier this month despite opposition from Germany

The tariffs imposed means that EVs built in China will see 45% duties, which will go into effect next month for five years. The vote went through with ten members backing it while five opposed, alongside twelve abstentions. Of those who opposed, the standout of course is Germany.

It looks like China and the EU are looking to find ways to compromise but I wouldn't hold my breath expecting a quick resolution.
