FRANKFURT, May 7 (Reuters) - BMW expects auto

import tariffs that came into effect in early March to have a

"notable" impact on second-quarter results, its finance chief

Walter Mertl said, even as the premium carmaker confirmed its

2025 outlook.

"The geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty has reached

a level we have rarely seen before," Mertl told journalists

during the group's first-quarter results call.
