June 10, 2024 | New CAFE standards finalized; EV sounds represent tough challenge by Automotive News
The feds are tripling the fines that the automakers will have to pay for falling short of CAFE requirements over the next several years, even as they ramp up production of all-new electric vehicles.
Craig talks about the Trump administration's attempt to keep California for setting its own rules on air quality and auto emissions standards. Also, the ads are everywhere, warning about insurance companies, price fixing, and hospital closures in response to a problem with so called "surprise billing." Not surpising, there is some big money behind these ads.
Craig discusses the secret deal hashed out between California and four companies; Ford,VW,Honda and BMW, to bypass Trump on mileage standards. Also, we actually did hear important things in the Mueller hearings yesterday...the media shouldn't treat it like a cage match.
CAFE standards - will they be frozen, relaxed.
