Trump administration weakens fuel efficiency standards for new cars

Original: The Trump administration weakens fuel efficiency standards for new cars

The Trump administration has moved to weaken fuel efficiency standards for new cars sold in the United States, rolling back requirements that automakers improve the average fuel economy of their fleets. The change relaxes emissions and mileage rules on manufacturers, a decision likely to draw criticism from environmental groups and praise from parts of the auto industry.

Why now: A major federal rollback of vehicle emissions rules has direct implications for consumers, automakers and climate policy, driving widespread coverage and debate.
