Automakers warn Biden vehicle rules not feasible, could cost $14 bln in fines

The Biden administration proposal to dramatically hike fuel economy standards through 2032 is not feasible and could cost automakers a total of more than $14 billion in fines, an automotive group said Friday.

The Alliance for Automotive Innovation, which represents General Motors, Toyota Motor, Volkswagen , Hyundai and others, said the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration proposal "exceeds maximum feasibility" and noted the agency projects "manufacturers will pay over $14 billion in non-compliance penalties between 2027 and 2032."
