EPA Proposes Ambitious Plan , for EVs to Account for , Two-Thirds of New Cars by 2032.
On April 12, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)
proposed new car pollution rules that may become the Biden
administration's most aggressive climate change policies.
The ambitious plan calls for electric
vehicles to make up two-thirds of all
new cars sold in the U.S. by 2032.
According to the EPA, transportation
accounts for almost 30% of all
greenhouse emissions in the U.S.
The new tailpipe standards
would cut the estimated pollution
produced by cars in half.
Michael Regan, the EPA's administrator, called the new regulations , “the strongest-ever federal pollution
standards for cars and trucks.”.
Together, these actions will
accelerate the ongoing transition
to a clean vehicles future, tackle
the climate crisis and improve
our air quality for communities
across the country, Michael Regan, EPA administrator, via CNN.
CNN reports that the news comes as the EPA is considering
several emissions proposals aimed at having
electric cars represent 64% to 69% of the market.

The EPA also suggests that EVs could
make up almost half of all new
medium-duty vehicles by 2032.
Thomas Boylan, the regulatory director for EV trade
group Zero Emission Transportation Association, called
the proposal a pivotal decision for the auto industry.
It’s a pretty big deal. This is really going
to set the tone for the rest of the decade
and into the 2030s in terms of what this
administration is looking for the auto
industry to do when it comes to
decarbonizing and ultimately electrifying, Thomas Boylan, regulatory director for EV trade group
