Trump to set new fuel economy standards and undo Biden-era policy
President Donald Trump announced that he plans to replace the existing fuel economy standards, which were designed to promote electric vehicle adoption under President Joe Biden’s administration. Trump described his action as a meaningful win for workers and consumers, criticizing the previous administration’s EV mandates as costly and unneeded burdens on automakers and Americans. He stated that his new standards would terminate what he called “ridiculous” EV mandates, which he claims forced Americans into unwanted cars and led to wasted billions on charging infrastructure that was never built.
President Donald Trump said on Saturday night he plans to scrap former President Joe Biden’s fuel economy standards meant to incentivize electric vehicle adoption, framing it as a “BIG DAY” for both workers and consumers.
“I have just approved new Fuel Economy Standards that TERMINATE Sleepy Joe Biden and [former Transportation Secretary] Pete Boot-Edge-Edge’s ridiculous EV Mandate,” he said. “The Dumocrats cost our Great Auto Manufacturers $Billions, forced Americans into cars they never wanted, and wasted Billions on Chargers that were never built.”
