"A majority of European countries have voted in favour of imposing high tariffs on electric vehicles imported from China.
The European Commission – the executive arm of the European Union (EU) – introduced import tariffs to varying degrees earlier this year to protect its car industry from being undermined by increasing numbers of cheap vehicles coming from China.
But now the member states have voted, the taxes have become official – with tariffs on Chinese cars set to rise from 10 per cent to 45 per cent for the next five years."
