Do foreign-made AWD autos have a 25% tariff on them?

Thats what my friend just told me. Two questions..

1) Is he right?

2) If so, why?

It's actually 24.9%.

So there is a tariff on AWD models as opposed to others.. Why?

Not to be rude, Google.

Just trucks, not cars. So any Toyota Tundra, 2WD or 4WD will have the tariff. A Subaru Legacy, will not.

The Legacy is made in Indiana.

This Cato Institute article does not specify AWD. It seems to apply to all trucks, or at least it did in the past.
