The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has officially announced the final vehicle emission standards for the US, which will cut over seven billion tonnes of carbon emissions.<\/h2>\n
The new vehicle emission standards are for passenger cars, light-duty trucks, and medium-duty vehicles for model years 2027-2032 and beyond.<\/p>\n
These standards, aimed at curbing carbon emissions, are projected to significantly impact society, with nearly $100bn in annual net benefits, including substantial public health benefits and reduced fuel costs for drivers.<\/p>\n
The EPA’s final standards build upon the significant pollution reduction goals outlined in the proposed rule while accelerating the adoption of cleaner vehicle technologies.<\/p>\n
