Four major automakers agree to adopt California's emissions standards. More here:
The Alliance of Automobile Manufacturers representing major automakers including GM, VW and Toyota Motor Corp , said the deal acknowledged the Obama rules are “not attainable and need to be adjusted.”
Under Trump, federal regulators backed freezing emissions requirements for new cars and trucks at 2020 levels through 2026. The proposal by EPA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration is not expected to go to the White House for final review for at least several more weeks, people briefed on the matter said.
The Obama-era rules adopted in 2012 called for a fleetwide fuel efficiency average of 46.7 miles per gallon by 2025, with average annual increases of about 5%, compared with 37 mpg by 2026 under the Trump administration’s preferred option. “A 50-state solution has always been our preferred path forward and we understand that any deal involves compromise,” the automakers’ statement said. They said the deal will let them “meet both federal and state requirements with a single national fleet ... to ensure meaningful greenhouse gas emissions reductions.”
