On the news they said this was to reduce our dependency on gas.
That should reduce prices on top of reducing how much each vehicle consumes, but I did need to independently verify this will be the average.
For some reason the talking heads didn't specify.

NHTSA projects that the new rules will raise the price of a new vehicle in the 2029 model year by $1,087.

which would further increase the already crazy used car market.

The new requirements increase gas mileage by 8% per year for model years 2024 and 2025 and 10% in the 2026 model year.

No they don't. Everybody knows that 28 x 1.08 x 1.08 x 1.1 = 35.92
It would be more like 12, 12, and 14%.
That would take you from 28 to 40.
Not even my HX is rated 40 MPG average.
