Ford to stop importing SUV model from China to US amid Trump’s reshoring push
The US president has pressured automakers to shift more production home, imposing higher tariffs on imported cars and parts
US President Donald Trump has pressured automakers to shift more production to the United States, imposing higher tariffs on imported vehicles and parts. Ford Motor Company will stop importing the Lincoln Nautilus SUV, which it currently sources from China, and instead begin expanding production of the sport utility vehicle within the US market beginning in 2030.
The automaker has been importing the Nautilus from Hangzhou since 2024, after its original Ontario assembly plant was retooled to manufacture other models. In 2025, Ford sold approximately 34,000 Nautilus SUVs in the US, making it a modest seller compared to its F-Series pickups and Explorer and Bronco sales.
