Elon Musk-led electric automaker Tesla  (TSLA)  has issued a dire warning to the Trump administration about the ongoing trade war. The company said that it could be a target for retaliatory tariffs aimed at the country and increase the cost of making its EVs in the United States.

In an unsigned letter, Tesla encourages trade representative to reconsider tariffs, saying they could hurt U.S.-based car manufacturers.

According to the letter, the tariff increase could lead to higher manufacturing costs for Tesla’s vehicles and reduce its competitive capacity.
