Fuel efficiency standards set the required average fuel economy for vehicles, aiming to reduce fuel consumption and greenhouse gas emissions. Proponents argue that it helps reduce emissions, save consumers money on fuel, and decrease reliance on fossil fuels. Opponents argue that it raises production costs, leading to higher vehicle prices, and may not have a significant impact on overall emissions.

Competition will take care of this problem because nobody likes paying more than they have to, especially for fuel, as vehicles increasingly get better, so will the mileage and the price.
@B4BGMQZ2mos2MO
They already do this on Dessel vehicles and there not much deference so honestly I would leave it alone
@B3H5FF5Constitution3mos3MO
Yes on electric vehicles being bad for the environment but there are more cars on the road that are older and have never had this bad of restrictions. So yes on newer cars no on older.
@B2DQVTBWomen’s Equality5mos5MO
more funding for research and science. Engineers could invent better tech related to fuel efficiency and how our vehicles consume and release the energy.
@9XTFXJN7mos7MO
No, this has proven in the past to actually cause worse pollution and cost the tax payers significantly more money than it saved.
@MiataRacer28 7mos7MO
Yes, daily personal commuter cars should have a stricter fuel efficiency standard to uphold. High performance vehicles should not be subject to this standard.
@9X9XDYXRepublican7mos7MO
I think manufacturers should work to decrease emissions but do not believe the government should increase restrictions.
@9VSSM9W8mos8MO
I think the government should focus on making a creating a fuel source that doesn't require drilling
@9VSB8NR8mos8MO
For day to day vehicles fuel restrictions should be stricter, but work vehicles, hauling trucks, ect, should not have the same strictness on their fuel efficiency.
@9TC9YQD9mos9MO
If stricter regulations are put in place, alternative fuels/hybrid/electric as well as public transportation options also need to be explored more. Enacting tighter restrictions without looking for other ways to lower fossil fuel dependence, increase accessibility to transportation, and mitigate costs/environmental impact, isn't a soltuon.
@9RFSBC411mos11MO
The current concept of fuel standards has largely led to the creation of vehicles that make no practical sense. Repealing the leftover price gouging from the chicken tax would be a step in the right direction.
@9R45ZH911mos11MO
no, people should freely be able to make a decision unless the government is willing to replace every car in the united states with electric cars without any type of repercussion payment involved unless those people have a car note already or are actively buying a new car
@9PXH8VK12mos12MO
No, but give a cash back tax bonus for those who buy higher fuel efficiency vehicles.
@B33VVXD 4mos4MO
Instead of punishing drivers with less efficient cars, incentivize the driving of more efficient cars
@9V7M4ZK9mos9MO
No, but they should supply more funding towards the production of efficient fuel or benefits for the usage
@9PZBF7F12mos12MO
Yes but across the entire line up of vehicles from a manufacturer as an average not each individual vehicle.
