US finalizes lower fuel economy standards favoring gas vehicles

Original: US finalizes new lower fuel economy standards in boost for gas-powered vehicles

The US has finalized new fuel economy standards that are lower than previously planned, a move that eases requirements on automakers and supports continued production of gas-powered vehicles. The rollback relaxes mileage targets set for coming model years. Supporters say it reduces compliance costs, while critics argue it will increase fuel consumption and emissions.

Why now: The rollback of emissions-related policy is a significant shift with economic and environmental implications for automakers and consumers.
