Background: 2016 US Car and Truck Standards
§ Separate CO2-indexed car and truck standards (with separate slopes)!§ By statute (EPCA 1975, EISA 2007), NHTSA must set separate attribute-based car, truck
standards!§ Assuming no shifts in fleet composition and no trading à -24% gCO2e/mile from 2008-2016!
§ Cars and trucks would reduce gCO2e/mile by 23% and 26%, respectively, from 2008 to 2016.!§ Excluding 10.6 gCO2/mile from AC credits, CO2 reductions are 19% (cars) and 21% (truck)!
9 The equivalent lines for CAFE standards are slightly sloped (i.e., not perfectly linear) in fuel economy (mpg) space; note that EPA assumes some sales shift toward smaller car/trucks in 2016 timeframe in their analysis; in MY2012, 2WD SUVs shift from light truck to car category; the right y-axis is rated fuel economy after 10.6 g/mile A/C credits are utilized

Developments in other countries/regions on fuel efficiency standards..!
Slide 18
• Australia is expected to unveil a regulatory impact assessment for 2015 and 2020 CO2 standards in December 2012!
• Vietnam has drafted fuel efficiency standards for passenger vehicles as well as 2-3 wheelers, and a draft notification is expected by December 2012 as well.!
• Russia and Indonesia will soon be the two of the largest markets without a fuel efficiency standards.!
