US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg unveiled stricter fuel economy standards<\/a> today that he said would save Americans money at the pump, as well as help reduce carbon emissions and fight climate change. <\/p>\n

\u201cWhen these standards take effect, Americans buying a new vehicle will spend less on gas than they would have if we hadn\u2019t taken this step,\u201d Buttigieg said at a Friday news conference in Washington, DC. \u201cWe estimate that today\u2019s rule will prevent 5.5 trillion pounds of carbon dioxide from going into our atmosphere between now and 2050.\u201d<\/p>\n

By 2026, the average new vehicle in the US will get 49 miles of travel per gallon of gasoline (mpg) under the revised Corporate Average Fuel Economy standards, Buttigieg said. The new standards will increase fuel efficiency by 8 percent annually for model years 2024\u20132025 and 10 percent annually for model year 2026. They will also increase the estimated fleetwide average by nearly 10 miles per gallon for model year 2026, relative to model year 2021.<\/p>\n
