It has effect! People are buying less American.

According to Systembolaget (the liquor monopoly of Sweden), there has been a drop in sales of American liquor by 17% this year. This is likely caused by boycotts after the tariffs introduced against Europe.

Long term, this may have an effect on which goods they buy in.

    Yeah I really don’t get the numbers coming out of there. Maybe a tax bracket thing - there are a lot betters EVs than Tesla under the Swedish lease-bracket (the VW ID.7 for example, have one myself) but the Teslas are ~15000 EUR cheaper.
