Trump Sharply Scales Back Fuel Economy Rules for New Cars
The Trump administration has announced a sharp rollback of federal fuel economy standards for new cars and light trucks, easing requirements that automakers improve efficiency. The move reduces pressure on manufacturers to sell electric and hybrid vehicles and is expected to lower compliance costs while drawing criticism from environmental groups who warn it will increase emissions and fuel consumption.
Why now: The policy change has major implications for the auto industry, gasoline prices and US climate goals, prompting broad debate.
