BMW plans to absorb the cost of Trump's tariffs on the M2, 2-series coupe, and 3-series sedan—but only for a short time.

Tariffs imposed by the Trump administration threaten to increase the cost of vehicles built both here and elsewhere — but the impacts won't be immediately felt on two of BMW's best-selling models, as the carmaker has promised it will “price-protect” its Mexican-built cars until May 1.

(Reuters) -German automaker BMW is telling dealers in the U.S. it will absorb the added cost of new tariffs on its imports from Mexico, at least for the next several weeks, the Wall Street Journal reported on Wednesday.
