Trump administration begins effort to reverse EPA vehicle rules

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency said on Wednesday it is beginning the effort to reverse the Biden administration’s vehicle emissions rules that would force automakers to build a rising number of electric vehicles.

The Trump administration said it would reconsider the EPA’s 2024 rules that would cut passenger vehicle fleetwide tailpipe emissions by nearly 50% by 2032 over 2027 levels. The EPA has forecast that between 35% and 56% of new vehicles sold between 2030 and 2032 would be electric in order to comply.
