Implementation According to several people familiar with the matter, the EU side is seeking industry opinions on the plan to postpone this 10% tariff. According to the original arrangement, the tariff will take effect on most relevant vehicles from January 1 next year. Two people familiar with the matter said that Britain supports this plan. Two people familiar with the matter said that there is still room for adjustment in the European Commission's proposal; the extension period is shorter than ACEA's request, in order to preserve the market demand for batteries in the European Union as much as possible. According to people familiar with the matter, the proposal includes two plans: one is a direct one-year extension; the other is a two-year flexible mechanism that allows car companies to use domestic models equipped with compliant batteries to hedge against the quota for vehicles equipped with non-compliant batteries at the time of export. Two British officials said it is expected that after the EU-UK summit on November 20, the two sides will begin substantive negotiations on the extension of rules of origin.
