Most people cannot really even afford current car prices (for the cars they want at least), and are overleveraging themselves on car loans already. If your monthly auto + auto insurance payments together are exceeding 10% of your individual gross income divided by 12, then you are buying too much car for your income level. Example: If you earn 45K per year gross, then your monthly auto+insurance payments together should not exceed $375 total (or not by much if it is).

The US has leverage. The threat of tariffs are that, threats. I would be suprised if it’s going to work out in the worst case scenario. The final deal will be somewhere in the middle, with the automakers adapting and evolving to meet the demand of our country. Our population is too large and highly dependant on the automobile for transportation, which means that the automakers will meet the demands of the government. The automakers are fear mongering to get their way.

The Trump tariffs will sadly and certainly increase vehicle costs. Hopefully, Trump is a temporary anomaly.

Less cars on roads = less accidents = less traffic jam
Europe has done good job when it comes to owning car, in most places, you don't even need a car.
