US finalizes rollback of fuel economy standards

Original: Department of Transportation Finalizes Rollback of Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) Standards for Passenger Cars and Light Trucks

The US Department of Transportation has finalized its rollback of Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standards for passenger cars and light trucks. The move relaxes fuel efficiency requirements that automakers must meet, loosening regulations originally put in place to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. The change is expected to affect vehicle design and compliance costs across the US auto industry.

Why now: The finalization of weaker fuel economy rules has immediate regulatory and cost implications for automakers, consumers and climate policy.
