For the current model year, standards enacted under Trump require the fleet of new vehicles to get just under 28 miles per gallon in real-world driving. The new requirements increase gas mileage by 8% per year for model years 2024 and 2025 and 10% in the 2026 model year.<\/p>\n<p>Agency officials say the requirements are the maximum that the industry can achieve over the time period and will reduce gasoline consumption by more than 220 billion gallons over the life of vehicles, compared with the Trump standards.<\/p>\n<p>Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, whose department includes the NHTSA, said the rules also will help strengthen national security by making the country less dependent on foreign oil and less vulnerable to volatile gasoline prices. Gasoline nationwide has spiked to an average of more than $4.22 per gallon, with much of the increase coming since Russia, a major oil producer, invaded Ukraine in late February. It cost $2.88 per gallon just a year ago, according to AAA.<\/p>\n<p>Gas prices also have helped to fuel inflation to a 40-year high, eating up household budgets and hitting President Joe Biden&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roval ratings.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Transportation is the second-largest cost for American families, only behind housing,&#8221; Buttigieg said. The new standards, he said, will help keep the U.S. more secure and preserve &#8220;the freedom of our country to chart its future without being subject to other countries and to the decisions that are being made in the boardrooms of energy companies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>But auto dealers say more stringent requirements drive up prices and push people out of an already expensive new-car market.<\/p>\n<p>Trump&#8217;s administration rolled back fuel economy standards, allowing them to rise 1.5% per year, which environmental groups said was inadequate to limit planet-warming greenhouse gas emissions that fuel climate change. The standards had been rising about 5% per year previously.<br \/>\n                                            <!-- Google middle Adsense block --><\/p>\n<p>But the new standards won&#8217;t im<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">media<\/a>tely match those adopted through 2025 under President Barack Obama. NHTSA officials said they will equal the Obama standards by 2025 and slightly exceed them for the 2026 model year.<\/p>\n<p>The Obama-era standards automatically adjusted for changes in the type of vehicles people are buying. When they were enacted in 2012, 51% of new vehicle sales were cars and 49% SUVs and trucks. Last year, 77% of new vehicle sales were SUVs and trucks, which <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a>ly are less efficient than cars.<\/p>\n<p>Some environmental groups said the new requirements from NHTSA under Biden don&#8217;t go far enough to fight global warming. Others supported the new standards as a big step toward reducing emissions.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Climate change has gotten much worse, but these rules only require automakers to reduce gas-guzzling slightly more than they agreed to cut nine years ago,&#8221; said Dan Becker, director of the Safe Climate Transport Center at the Center for Biological Diversity.<\/p>\n<p>He said the final rule is about 2 mpg short of the strongest alternative that NHTSA considered.<\/p>\n<p>Officials said that under the new standards, owners would save about $1,400 in gasoline costs during the lifetime of a 2029 model year vehicle. Carbon dioxide emissions would drop by 2.5 billion metric tons by 2050 under the standards, the NHTSA said.<\/p>\n<p>Automakers are investing billions of dollars to develop and build electric vehicles but say government support is needed to get people to buy them. The companies want government tax credits to reduce prices as well as more money for EV charging stations to ease anxiety over running out of juice.<\/p>\n<p>Stellantis, formerly Fiat Chrysler, said Friday it&#8217;s investing $35 billion on electric and hybrid vehicles and to become carbon neutral by 2038. &#8220;These aims are critical to a sustainable future, and are more likely to be realized with government support for a widespread EV recharging network, point-of-sale EV purchase incentives, and inducements to expand electric-vehicle manufacturing in the U.S.,&#8221; the company said in a statement.<\/p>\n<p>The NHTSA sets fuel economy requirements, while the Environmental Protection Agency develops limits on greenhouse gas emissions. NHTSA officials said their requirements nearly match rules adopted in December by the EPA, so automakers don&#8217;t have to comply with two rules.\n                                                                                                                        <\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<div class=\"article-main__explore my-4 d-print-none\">\n<p>                                            EXPLAINER: The impact of Joe Biden&#8217;s new fuel economy rules\n                                        <\/p><\/div>\n<hr class=\"mb-4\"\/>\n<p class=\"article-main__note mt-4\">\n                                                \u00a9 2022 The Associated Press.
