US President Donald Trump has officially repealed fuel economy regulations set by the previous administration, reducing efficiency targets for automakers. The regulation, known as the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE), was initially introduced in 1975 and later strengthened under Barack Obama and Joe Biden. The new framework, titled “Freedom Means Affordable Cars”, aims to ease emission requirements and keep vehicle purchase prices lower for consumers.
