Trump rolls back Biden-era fuel economy standards for new vehicles
Original: Trump ratchets down Biden-era mpg fuel standards in new cars, trucks
The Trump administration is moving to weaken the fuel economy requirements for new cars and trucks that were put in place under President Biden. The change would loosen mileage standards automakers must meet, reversing a centerpiece of the previous administration's climate policy. The rollback is expected to draw criticism from environmental groups and praise from auto industry interests concerned about compliance costs.
Why now: A major reversal of US climate and auto policy directly affects car prices, emissions and the auto industry.
