Tesla China has stopped accepting orders for the Model S and Model X. Both models are shipped to China from the US, and China could already be affected by the escalating tariff war between the two economic powerhouses.https://www.notebookcheck.net/Tesla-China-suspends-orders-for-US-made-Model-S-and-Model-X-amid-escalating-tariff-war.997700.0.html
"goods from the US are subject to 84 percent import duties"
1) I think 84% is outdated and it is higher now. The latest US tariff on China I have heard was 154% so that would suggest 134% China tariff on the USA plus see below.
2) Isn't there an additional 20% that was in place previously? Currently, China raises tariffs to values 20% below US tariffs on China for this reason so that effectively both countries charge the same tariffs on each other.

Yeah, be careful. NBC (well, some writers) like censoring G-rated unfavorable comments about China (like that would change the WORLD's views/opinions)! 😏
