U.S. Bans Connected Vehicles with Chinese, Russian Tech from 2027 Software, 2030 Hardware, Citing National Security
Jan 14, 2025, 05:20 PM
The Biden administration has finalized a rule that effectively bans the import and sale of connected vehicles containing Chinese or Russian hardware and software in the U.S., citing national security concerns. The rule, set to take effect for software in model year 2027 vehicles and hardware in model year 2030 vehicles, targets components such as Bluetooth, cellular, and satellite systems, as well as automated driving and vehicle connectivity systems. The Department of Commerce highlighted the risks posed by these technologies, including potential data collection and espionage. The rule also extends to vehicles manufactured in the U.S. by entities under Chinese or Russian control, which could impact companies like Polestar, owned by China's Geely. The move is part of broader efforts to restrict Chinese technology in the U.S. amid escalating trade tensions.
