This week, the 90-day U.S. freeze on tariffs is set to end. Import taxes are coming back, and hard. Everyday imported products will see an increase in price.

The reason behind the initial tariff freeze was to open up trade negotiations, but only few deals were brokered in the three month window. Here are some of the biggest goods that are should rise in price in the following weeks.

Automobile Parts

According to Ainvest, Imported vehicle parts are going to be hit hard, with Brake rotors already being affected by 25% sanctions under 301 tariffs.

Car repair costs could become more expensive as brake rotors increase by 8% in price, as importers face higher tariffs. Suppliers for auto parts have warned of steady price increases as the freeze ends on August 1.

Gaming Consoles

Game consoles, specifically the current generation of Xbox, have already seen a price surge in recent months, according to Reuters. Microsoft, the company behind the console, increased the price by 20% in May 2025.

This happened as a cautionary measure, as higher import taxes roll in and supply chains face delays.

Samsung TVs

New tariffs won’t just affect luxury items, but also include what were budget products up until now. Samsung’s budget TV, such as the DU7200 series, is more expensive as new country-specific taxes are imposed on nations like South Korea, which provides essential electronics in numerous products.

These TVs have already risen from $400 to $450 as suppliers prepare for the tariffs to increase import costs.

Coffee

Coffee is an essential day-starter for many Americans across the country. Starting on August 1, a 50% tariff on Brazilian coffee will be implemented.

This will make coffee more expensive for most Americans as Brazil is one of the country’s biggest suppliers. ABC News reported that the tariffs could end up increasing the price of coffee. However, the true price impact will only be seen after August 1.

After August 1, many countries are facing their own higher tariffs on imported goods. Bangladesh will see a 35% increase, Cambodia at 36%, and Indonesia at 32%.

With these nations supplying a large amount of clothing and footwear to the U.S., products will increase in price for everyday shoppers.

European Wine

The U.S. imports its fair share of wine from the EU. However, with the EU facing a 30% tariff after August 1, wine prices should be expected to increase.

This cost won’t be dissolved into companies, and consumers are going to have to unfortunately pay the difference. Locally produced wine shouldn’t see an increase in price, potentially causing damage to companies that rely heavily on imports.

Appliances

50% tariffs on steel and aluminum that start on August 1 will bleed over into many products that use the materials in their production, including household appliances like washers, dryers, refrigerators, and stoves.

As manufacturers face increased costs of production due to higher duties on imported metals, price hikes are to be expected to begin on the consumer side at any time from late summer to early fall.

Food Products

Many processed foods are imported from countries like South Korea, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines. Due to country-specific tariffs, the price of everyday food items like instant noodles, sauces, snacks, and processed seafood could increase after August 1.

Many of these products were previously sold at a low price or without any additional import taxes.

Pharmaceuticals

The medicine that millions of Americans rely on could also see price hikes as tariffs target countries like India, Malaysia, and South Korea.

Many generic medications and active ingredients are made in different countries and imported to the U.S. Trump has separately targeted pharmaceuticals with heavy tariffs, according to Investor’s Business Daily. In the shadow of these tariffs, the prices of pharmaceuticals may increase in the future.
