Trump rolls back Biden-era mileage rules amid slow EV shift

Original: Trump rolls back Biden-era mileage rules amid slow US shift to electric vehicles

The Trump administration is moving to roll back fuel economy standards put in place under former President Joe Biden, citing the slower-than-expected adoption of electric vehicles by American drivers. The mileage rules, designed to push automakers toward electrification, had been a cornerstone of Biden's climate agenda. The rollback is expected to ease pressure on carmakers while drawing criticism from environmental groups who argue it will increase emissions and fuel costs.

Why now: The policy reversal directly affects automakers, consumers and climate policy, making it a high-interest news story.
