Trump Slashes US Fuel-Economy Standards
Original: Trump Slashes Fuel-Economy Standards in Blow to Climate, Health, EV Market
The Trump administration has moved to weaken US fuel-economy standards, a decision critics say will increase greenhouse-gas emissions and air pollution while undercutting the American electric-vehicle market. The rollback relaxes requirements that automakers improve mileage across their fleets, reversing tighter rules adopted by previous administrations. Environmental and health advocates are warning of higher emissions and consumer fuel costs, while the change is being closely watched by carmakers weighing their EV investment plans.
Why now: The administration's rollback of fuel-economy rules has immediate implications for climate policy, public health and the EV industry.
