British luxury car maker Aston Martin cuts jobs by 20% as U.S. tariffs hit

Aston Martin faces £18.7m restructuring costs and a 21% revenue decline due to US and China tariffs, planning to cut over 500 jobs globally in response.

  • British luxury carmaker Aston Martin announced plans to cut up to 20% of its workforce, around 600 jobs, after widening annual losses due to US tariffs and weak Chinese demand.
  • Aston Martin's net loss jumped 52% last year to £493.2 million compared to 2024, as automakers were among the companies hit hardest by Trump's tariffs aimed at bringing auto production back to the US.
  • Aston Martin said the outlook for the automotive industry "remains challenging" amid "uncertainties over the economic impact from the unpredictable threat or introduction of additional US tariffs, changes to China's ultra-luxury car taxes and the continued reliance on a stable network of global suppliers".
