To strengthen our economy, save drivers money at the gas pump and reduce harmful pollution in the air we breathe, President Obama has made cleaner, innovative and more fuel efficient vehicles a priority for this administration. Today, we’re taking another step to help put more fuel efficient cars on our streets and highways.
To match a new generation of vehicles rolling off the lines in American auto plants, we’re releasing a new generation of fuel economy labels to help consumers decide which vehicle is right for them and their families. These new labels represent the most significant redesign of fuel economy labels in 35 years – and one of the most powerful tools car buyers have ever had to find a vehicle that will meet their needs and save them money.
The new fuel economy labels will still provide the familiar, and important, information about city and highway mileage for new vehicles. But they will also cover new categories to help car buyers who are comparing a wide variety of different vehicles on the market.
