Ina recent update it has been revealed that Uk made vehicles imported into the Us will be hot with  reduced Tariff rate of 10% only.

The Market had received about 27% of all Uk made vehicles in 2024 accounting for some 9 billion a year.  Uk is the first country to have reached such and a arrangement with America, as per American officials China would be the next nation to go through such negotiations.
