The Safer Affordable Fuel Efficient Vehicle Rule signed on March 30, 2020, undermines critical clean car standards by reducing fuel efficiency standards to only a 1.5 percent annual miles per gallon increase. This rollback hurts Nevadans by undermining deployment of new clean vehicle technologies, increasing tailpipe emissions that harm public health, and exacerbating climate change through increased air pollution. And most importantly, it will cost consumers more money at the gas pump during these most difficult and uncertain financial times.
