EPA to release strict auto emissions rules, upending industry and pushing for EV adoption.

The Environmental Protection Agency is set to release new proposed federal emissions standards for light-duty vehicles that could make up to two-thirds of new passenger vehicles sold in the U.S. electric by 2032. The rules would ensure that 64% to 67% of all new-car sales in the United States would be electric vehicles by 2032. The proposal is a monumental step toward zero-emissions vehicles, coming as the U.S. tries to keep up with other countries racing toward EV adoption. Biden has made electrifying the cars that Americans drive a key part of his climate goals.
