Report: CAFE and the U.S. Auto Industry

CAFE and the U.S. Auto Industry – A Growing Auto Investor Issue, 2012-2020 October 2007 (36 pages, PDF): “In partnership with Ceres and the Investor Network on Climate Risk, [citi] along with industry experts at the Planning Edge, University of Michigan Transportation Research Institute, and NRDC evaluated potential changes to the U.S. Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) program.

  • CAFE on the Rise — We expect Congress to enact changes to the U.S. CAFE program before 2012 that will raise standards by 40% to a market-wide 35 mpg by 2020. We expect National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHSTA) to “reform” the program for cars to allow automakers to have different standards based on the average size of their new car sales (already in place for light trucks), which should mitigate the impact on sales mix.”
