And so? I'm sure you've been around long enough to know that the automakers (especially the US ones!) ALWAYS scream and whine about how they can't possibly meet emissions (or fuel economy standards). Then they spend a few years foisting crap on the public (remember e.g. smog pumps). When/if they discover that their whining doesn't have any effect (and the foreign automakers are cleaning their clock), they finally straighten up and do things halfway right - then the cycle starts all over again.
In other news, I see that Tesla's 1st quarter sales of the Model S have exceeded their target. Wonder why...
