The deal directly rebuffs the Trump administration’s efforts to relax tailpipe pollution regulations.
Four major automakers have reached a deal with California air regulators to gradually increase fuel efficiency standards, rebuffing the Trump administration’s efforts to relax tailpipe pollution regulations.
This conflicts with a proposal put forward by the Trump administration which would freeze fuel efficiency standards at about 37 miles per gallon for cars after 2020. In addition to ending California’s unique authority to set its own tougher greenhouse gas emissions standards, the plan would nullify the state mandate that automakers sell a certain number of electric vehicles.
