WASHINGTON, Sept 23 (Reuters) - A group representing
nearly all major automakers asked the Trump administration
Tuesday to rollback aggressive vehicle emissions limits that
seek to force the industry to build a rising number of electric
vehicles.
The Alliance for Automotive Innovation, which represents
General Motors ( GM ), Toyota Motor ( TM ), Volkswagen
, Hyundai and other major automakers, said
in a filing with the Environmental Protection Agency that
legislation signed by President Donald Trump in June will
increase the effective price of EVs and could lead to a
near-term decline in EV market share. They added the rules
finalized last year under President Joe Biden are no longer
achievable.
