Trump Moves to Weaken Fuel Economy Standards

Original: Trump to Cut Standard on Fuel Economy

The Trump administration is moving to lower federal fuel economy standards for cars and light trucks, rolling back efficiency requirements that had been set to tighten over the coming years. Automakers and environmental groups are expected to clash over the change: manufacturers may welcome reduced compliance costs, while critics warn it will raise gasoline consumption and emissions. The move marks a significant shift in US vehicle policy.

Why now: A new rollback of vehicle efficiency rules carries immediate implications for gas prices, emissions and the auto industry.
