美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周六宣布，德国豪华汽车制造商奥迪计划在佐治亚州投资40亿美元建设一座组装厂。该工厂预计每年生产20万辆运动型多用途车（SUV）。奥迪表示，这项计划中的投资预计将创造约4500个就业岗位。据路透社报道，工厂建设定于明年开始，车辆生产预计将在2030年代初启动。特朗普在佐治亚州宣布奥迪SUV工厂计划特朗普在佐治亚州中部梅肯附近的佩里举行的一场集会上宣布了这项投资。
US President Donald Trump announced on Saturday that German luxury carmaker Audi plans to build a $4 billion assembly plant in Georgia. The factory is expected to produce 200,000 sport utility vehicles (SUVs) every year. Audi said the planned investment is expected to create approximately 4,500 jobs. Construction is scheduled to begin next year, while vehicle production is expected to start in the early 2030s, as reported by Reuters.

他正试图说服美国人在11月中期选举中支持共和党。佐治亚州的美国参议员和州长选举竞争激烈。奥迪首席执行官格诺特·德尔纳表示，公司计划将其最大、最高端的SUV引入美国，并在佐治亚州梅肯生产。他将拟建的工厂描述为一项长期投资，因为奥迪相信美国市场。据一位向路透社透露消息的美国官员称，计划中的佐治亚州工厂预计将组装奥迪Q7、Q8和Q9 SUV。
He is trying to convince Americans to support Republicans in the November midterm elections. Georgia has competitive races for the US Senate and governor. Audi CEO Gernot Doellner said the company plans to bring its biggest and most premium SUVs to the US and manufacture them in Macon, Georgia. He described the proposed factory as a long-term investment because Audi believes in the American market. The planned Georgia plant is expected to assemble Audi's Q7, Q8 and Q9 SUVs, according to a US official who spoke to Reuters.
这些车型属于奥迪的高端SUV系列。特朗普关税与奥迪在美投资特朗普一直向外国汽车制造商施压，要求其将生产转移至美国。他还对进口汽车、钢铁、铝和汽车零部件征收关税。美国共和党参议员伯尼·莫雷诺表示，如果没有关税、他所称的常识性监管措施，以及取消加州自行制定燃油经济性标准的权力，奥迪的投资就不会发生。
These vehicles are part of Audi's premium SUV range. Trump tariffs and Audi's US investmentTrump has pressured foreign carmakers to move production to the United States. He has also imposed tariffs on imported vehicles, steel, aluminium and car parts. Republican US Senator Bernie Moreno said Audi's investment would not have happened without tariffs, what he described as common-sense regulations, and the removal of California's ability to set its own fuel-economy standards.
比尔·盖茨警告：人工智能在创造富足之前可能扰乱就业20年，机器人威胁人类就业奥迪在美国销售的所有车辆均从欧洲或墨西哥进口。去年，特朗普的关税使该公司损失约12亿欧元，合14亿美元。
Bill Gates warns AI could disrupt jobs for 20 years before creating abundance as robots threaten human employmentAudi imports all the vehicles it sells in the United States from Europe or Mexico. Last year, Trump's tariffs cost the company around 1.2 billion euros, or $1.4 billion.
计划中的美国工厂可能帮助奥迪增加本地生产，以应对这些贸易成本，据路透社报道。总统将这项计划投资呈现为他努力将更多汽车制造业带回美国的一部分。然而，批评者认为关税推高了车辆价格并造成了不确定性，导致一些车企推迟投资决策。奥迪计划在南卡罗来纳州增加车辆生产一名美国官员告诉路透社，奥迪计划在邻州南卡罗来纳州每年生产2.5万辆汽车。其中一些目前在欧洲生产的车辆也将用于出口。
The planned US factory could help Audi increase local production as it faces these trade costs, according to Reuters. The president has presented the planned investment as part of his effort to bring more car manufacturing to the United States. However, critics argue that tariffs have increased vehicle prices and created uncertainty, causing some automakers to delay investment decisions. Audi plans more vehicle production in South CarolinaA US official told Reuters that Audi plans to produce 25,000 vehicles annually in neighbouring South Carolina. Some of these vehicles, which are currently manufactured in Europe, would also be exported.
这些车辆预计将在大众越野车品牌Scout Motors正在建设的工厂组装。这座耗资20亿美元的工厂正在南卡罗来纳州首府哥伦比亚附近的布莱斯伍德建设中。
The vehicles are expected to be assembled at a plant being built by Scout Motors, Volkswagen's off-road vehicle brand. The $2 billion facility is under construction in Blythewood, near Columbia, South Carolina's state capital.
大众首席执行官奥利弗·布鲁梅表示，该地区对公司的盈利增长至关重要。他补充说，美国潜在的奥迪工厂将为业务创造更多机会。德国大众工人面临裁员担忧德国IG Metall工会主席、大众副监事会主席克里斯蒂安·贝纳表示，在美国增加生产是合理的。然而，她强调大众必须清楚说明该投资对所有工厂工人的意义，特别是在德国的工人。她还表示，根据路透社报道，大众监事会必须做出最终投资决定。
Volkswagen CEO Oliver Blume said the region was important for the company's profitable growth. He added that a potential Audi factory in the United States would create further opportunities for the business. Volkswagen workers face job cut concerns in GermanyChristiane Benner, head of Germany's IG Metall union and Volkswagen's deputy supervisory board chair, said producing more vehicles in the US made sense. However, she stressed that Volkswagen must clearly explain what the investment would mean for workers at all its factories, particularly in Germany. She also said Volkswagen's supervisory board must make the final investment decision, according to Reuters.
德国下萨克森州州长奥拉夫·利斯表示，如果德国工人也能受益，在美国增加生产可能创造机会。下萨克森州是大众第二大股东。利斯警告说，美国的增长应保护德国的就业和经济活动，而不是取代它们。大众管理层与德国工人因大规模裁员面临日益加剧的紧张关系。
Olaf Lies, premier of Germany's Lower Saxony state, said increased production in America could create opportunities if German workers also benefited. Lower Saxony is Volkswagen's second-largest shareholder. Lies warned that US growth should protect jobs and economic activity in Germany rather than replace them. Volkswagen management and workers in Germany are facing growing tensions over large job cuts.
可能的工厂关闭加剧了担忧，因为该公司正面临成本上升和亚洲车企的激烈竞争。SpaceX AI增长使英伟达和CoreWeave股票成为焦点，因算力需求上升。奥迪位于德国西南部内卡苏尔姆的工厂是该公司在德国四家可能在2030年后面临关闭的大众工厂之一。据路透社报道，可能的美国扩张正值该公司及其母集团面临关于制造业务的艰难抉择之际。
Possible factory closures have added to concerns as the company deals with rising costs and strong competition from Asian carmakers. SpaceX AI growth puts Nvidia and CoreWeave stocks in focus as demand for computing power risesAudi's Neckarsulm plant in southwestern Germany is one of four Volkswagen factories in the country that could face closure after 2030. The possible US expansion comes as the company and its parent group face difficult decisions about their manufacturing operations, according to Reuters.
奥迪销量下滑，受美国关税和竞争影响奥迪全球销量连续第二年下滑，2026年上半年下降7%。中国市场的激烈竞争和美国关税打击了需求。该公司今年美国销量下降16%。
Audi sales fall amid US tariffs and competitionAudi's global sales fell for the second consecutive year and declined 7% in the first half of 2026.

特朗普削减了对电动汽车的政府激励措施，导致美国电动汽车和电池产量大幅减少。据路透社报道，自2025年1月上任以来，美国汽车及汽车零部件行业的就业人数也有所下降。丰田、本田和现代考虑在美国投资7月，日本丰田表示将投资36亿美元，在其位于得克萨斯州圣安东尼奥的制造基地建设一条占地250万平方英尺的卡车装配线。该公司计划将部分卡车生产从墨西哥转移至美国。丰田预计扩建将于2030年完成，创造2000个就业岗位。日本本田汽车正在考虑在美国建设一座装配厂。
Trump has cut government incentives for electric vehicles, contributing to a significant reduction in EV and battery production in the United States. Employment in the US vehicle and auto-parts industries has also fallen since he took office in January 2025, according to Reuters. Toyota, Honda and Hyundai consider US investmentsIn July, Japan's Toyota said it would spend $3.6 billion to build a 2.5-million-square-foot truck assembly line at its manufacturing campus in San Antonio, Texas. The company plans to shift some truck production from Mexico to the United States. Toyota expects the expansion to be completed by 2030 and create 2,000 jobs. Japan's Honda Motor is considering building an assembly plant in the United States.
然而，据路透社报道，该公司警告称，除非《美墨加协定》（USMCA）得到延长，否则可能不会推进该计划。

韩国现代汽车去年表示，对《美墨加协定》贸易协定的确定性将使其能够立即释放超过200亿美元的新增美国投资。该公司的立场凸显了贸易政策如何影响车企关于在何处制造车辆的决策。
South Korea's Hyundai said last year that certainty over the USMCA trade agreement would allow it to unlock more than $20 billion in new US investments immediately. The company's position highlights how trade policy can influence decisions about where automakers manufacture their vehicles.
计划中的佐治亚州工厂可能创造数千个就业岗位并扩大美国汽车产量。然而，奥迪的最终投资决定仍在待定中，且该扩张计划正值该车企面临销量下滑、贸易成本上升以及德国业务承压之际。该宣布也加剧了关于特朗普关税是否将给美国工人和经济带来长期利益的更广泛辩论。
The planned Georgia factory could create thousands of jobs and expand US vehicle production. However, Audi's final investment decision is still pending, and the expansion comes as the carmaker faces falling sales, higher trade costs and pressure on its German operations. The announcement has also added to the wider debate over whether Trump's tariffs will bring long-term benefits to American workers and the economy.
