Fact Sheet: Vehicle Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards

The Biden-Harris Administration has committed to getting the U.S. on a path to a low-carbon economy by 2050, bringing back the Obama-Biden vehicle standards, and setting new, ambitious ones. Meeting those commitments will require steady progress on gasoline vehicle fuel economy and zero emissions vehicle market share. Consumer Reports has analyzed the potential pathways to reaching this goal, and the potential impact this would have on consumers. 

The analysis has been condensed to a fact sheet, which is available as a downloadable PDF on this page.
