VW has 75% ownership in the Tavascan factory since 2020.
VW got an exemption on the additional import fees based on certain conditions (agreements on minimum selling price level, EU car industry investment assurances)
OK so maybe they haven’t got subsidies from the Chinese government, which is why they pay zero extra% duty.
As I stated earlier, the duty is based on the level of government subsidies Chinese factories have received. Where USA just has put a 150% tariff on everything car related from China. So I maintain EU and USA are not the same regarding duty/tariff, and EU and China are not the same regarding government subsidies, China subsidize Chinese car makers directly, while EU subsidies benefit all EV car makers disregarding country of origin.
