Corporate Average Fuel Economy

The National Road Safety Authority's Corporate Average Fuel Efficiency (CAFE) standard specifies the distance that our vehicles must travel with one gallon of fuel. NHTSA sets CAFE standards for passenger cars and light trucks (collectively referred to as light mini vehicles) and sets fuel consumption standards for medium and heavy trucks and engines, respectively. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also regulates fuel consumption window stickers for new cars. This website contains information on various aspects of these programs. We recommend you to check when new information is posted.

A safer and more energy efficient fuel economy (SAFE) vehicle regulation revises the existing company-wide average fuel efficiency (CAFE) and the CO2 emission standards of exhaust gas passenger cars and light trucks, and models that cover from 2021 to 2026 Establish. The new standard proposal will retain the 2020 standard of the model for the two projects until 2026. If passed, the preferred alternative to the proposed rule saves social costs by more than $ 500 billion and reduces the number of highway deaths by 12,700 (until vehicle lifetime before 2029).

The National Highway Road Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) and the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) are seeking a 60-day proposal after the official announcement of the Federal Register, an analysis of the proposal, and comments on various options. Those organizations will hold three hearings in the coming weeks and I think that general participants will directly express their opinions.

The National Report of the National Research Council's National Average Fuel Economy Standards Association's National Council of NRC 2002 report outlined the historical impact of federal corporate average fuel efficiency (CAFE) criteria and the prospects for future fuel efficiency improvement . This report defines cost effective technology as a combination of existing technology and new technology. This will improve fuel economy to match the rise in purchase price necessary for maintaining automobiles. Dimensions, weight, performance characteristics have not changed - (NRC 2002, 64). Technology under consideration is technology that can be put into production by 2015. Economic growth per mile per gallon is from 12% of small cars to 42% of large SUVs.
