The global auto sector has been hit hard by Washington's sweeping new tariffs, which impose a 25 percent levy on vehicles imported into the United States.
UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday said he was prepared to directly intervene to support affected sectors, and later unveiled plans to help the auto industry.
The government has already announced £2.3 billion ($3.0 billion) to boost the production of electric vehicles, and on Sunday said that it would ease rules on how manufacturers can achieve the 2030 target.
“Global trade is being transformed so we must go further and faster in reshaping our economy and our country,“ said Starmer.
“This will help ensure home-grown firms can export British cars built by British workers around the world,“ he added.
Vans with an internal combustion engine will be allowed to be sold until 2035.
Support for the UK car industry, which employs 152,000 people and adds £19 billion annually to the economy, “will be kept under review as the impact of new tariffs become clear”, added the government.
