REUTERS/Lucas Jackson/File PhotoWASHINGTON -The U.S. government said on Friday it was finalizing tighter tailpipe emissions standards for heavy duty vehicles like semi-trucks and buses, but the new rules would not be as strict as initially proposed in 2023.
The final standards tighten requirements at a slower pace and delay the start of new rules for day cab tractors and some heavy-duty vocational vehicles, the EPA said. The final rule includes lower electric vehicle projected sales rates for model years 2027-2029 than the original proposed rule would have required. But an industry group argued the rule was still too strict.) and others, said it was concerned"the final rule will end up being the most challenging, costly and potentially disruptive heavy-duty emissions rule in history."
Current tailpipe emissions limits for heavy duty trucks and engines were set in 2016 covering the 2021 through 2027 model years.
