Biden administration to relax EV rule on tailpipe emissions, NYT reports By Reuters
From Investing.com:
The Biden administration plans to relax limits on tailpipe emissions to give car manufacturers more time to ramp up sales of electric vehicles. The new rule would result in EV sales not needing to rise sharply until after 2030. The EPA is committed to finalizing a technology standard that secures reductions in air and climate pollution aligning with economic benefits.
