特斯拉起诉美国政府

US electric automaker Tesla has filed a lawsuit with the US Court of International Trade in New York, which aims to prevent the US government from collecting tariffs on car parts it imports from China, according to a Bloomberg report on Wednesday.

据彭博社9月23日报道，美国电动汽车制造商特斯拉在纽约的美国国际贸易法院对美国政府提起诉讼，目的是为了阻止后者对特斯拉从中国进口的汽车零部件征收关税。

The case seeks an order to declare the duties unlawful and a refund with interest on the amount it has already paid.

特斯拉希望法庭判决关税违法，并退还特斯拉已经支付的关税和利息。

US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer is named as the defendant in the case.

美国贸易代表罗伯特·莱特希泽为本案被告。

Tesla is challenging the actions he made, arguing that the increased cost of imports would hurt the financial state of the company, the report said.

据报道，特斯拉对莱特希泽所采取的行动提出质疑，认为进口成本的增加将损害公司的财务状况。

The company aimed to avoid the 25% tariffs on the Chinese-made computer and central display screens used in its Model 3 sedans.

特斯拉希望免除对其Model 3轿车上安装的中国造车载电脑和中央显示屏征收的25%的关税。
