Why You Can’t Buy Fortuner And Hilux in America | The 25% Chicken Tax Explained

Описание: Why can’t Americans buy the Toyota Fortuner or the Toyota HiLux, even though they’re sold all over the world?

The answer has nothing to do with safety or emissions — and everything to do with a little-known U.S. law called the Chicken Tax. In this video, we break down the 25% truck tariff that has shaped the American pickup and SUV market for over 60 years.

You’ll learn how a trade war from 1964 still protects U.S.-built trucks today, why Toyota builds the Tacoma in America instead of selling the HiLux, and how global vehicles like the Fortuner are quietly blocked from the U.S. market. This investigative-style deep dive explains complex trade regulations in a clear, engaging way for both car enthusiasts and everyday viewers.

If you’ve ever wondered why certain Toyotas are missing from U.S. showrooms, this video explains the real story behind it.
