WASHINGTON, March 26 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Wednesday unveiled a 25% tariff on imported cars and light trucks starting next week, widening the global trade war he kicked off upon regaining the White House this year in a move auto industry experts expect will drive up prices and stymie production.

"What we're going to be doing is a 25% tariff for all cars that are not made in the United States," Trump said at an event in the Oval Office.
