"Balancing Act: Evaluating the Impact of New EPA Rules on Heavy-Duty Vehicles and Electric Truck Sales"
TL;DR
The U.S. EPA has announced a final rule, "Greenhouse Gas Emissions Standards for Heavy-Duty Vehicles – Phase 3," to reduce greenhouse gas emissions from heavy-duty vehicles starting in model year 2027. The standards will apply to vocational vehicles and tractors, building on the 2016 Heavy-Duty Phase 2 program with a flexible, technology-neutral, and performance-based approach, allowing manufacturers to choose emissions control technologies that best suit their needs and those of their customers.
