Superior climate benefits and consumer savings are two key reasons why fully electric vehicles are the future of American clean transportation.
Don’t plug in your plug-in hybrid? EPA will now hold automakers responsible.
Accounting for the real-world use of PHEV’s would prevent over-crediting of GHG emission savings
Infrastructure and supply chains won’t hold up EPA’s proposed light and medium-duty vehicle standards
EPA’s light and medium-duty vehicle proposal builds on a strong foundation of private investment and supporting policies in infrastructure and supply chains.
To put the United States on track to reach 50% electric vehicle sales in 2030, cut the greenhouse gas target in half
Making the next round of standards at anything less stringent would mean leaving climate benefits on the table
