Fuel efficiency standards set the required average fuel economy for vehicles, aiming to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Proponents argue that it helps reduce emissions, save consumers money on fuel, and decrease reliance on fossil fuels. Opponents argue that it raises production costs, leading to higher vehicle prices, and may not have a significant impact on overall emissions.

They should put stricter standards on fuel companies rather than the vehicles. Vehicles can only burn sub standard fuel if that's all that's available
@B4B4XQX3wks3W
Yes. As close to 100% efficiency as possible. That means on the production side too. Stop making cars.
@B49VG5V3wks3W
The biggest issues with emissions is not personal transportation. Auto makers should be subsidized for creating cleaner vehicles instead
@B49S87X3wks3W
Only on new sales. Forcing costly restrictions on everyone including lower income people is inequitable
@B45TVPF4wks4W
The government should increase fuel prices to incentivize more fuel efficient cars while boosting revenues
@B4554CY1mo1MO
I think auto makers are doing their best in this regard. Electric vehicles are becoming more and more popular, despite them being equally hard on the environment.
@B454V2D1mo1MO
Not for personal use. Perhaps for commercial use based on the size and fossil fuel use of a company.
@B442LWM1mo1MO
Only if they get a benefit. Can’t impose something and make people acquire the cost. In the states electric vehicles didn’t have a fee and now they imposed it. People bought those vehicles to save money in other places and still got dinged. Make an incentive and keep your word
