Former President Donald Trump has claimed responsibility for approving new fuel economy standards that effectively reverse a previous administration’s electric vehicle mandate. The move, framed as a deregulatory step, could reshape automotive industry policies by easing restrictions on traditional gasoline-powered vehicles. Industry analysts suggest the shift may accelerate production of conventional cars while potentially slowing the transition to electric models. Critics argue the decision undermines climate goals set by prior environmental regulations.
