The Trump administration is releasing new fuel economy standards that relax regulatory requirements for automakers to control pollution from gasoline-powered cars and light trucks. Fuel economy requirements set out how far new vehicles need to travel on a gallon of gasoline. The change furthers President Donald Trump’s promise to revoke policies that encouraged or created incentives for the production of electric vehicles. Secretary of Transportation Sean Duffy said Monday that the administration has ended a mandate that he says forced automakers to produce more expensive electric vehicles that American families didn’t want.
