This assessment examines the costs and benefits of improving the fuel economy of passenger cars and light trucks for model years (MY) 2012 through MY 2016. It includes a discussion of the technologies that can improve fuel economy, analysis of the potential impact on retail prices, safety, lifetime fuel savings and their value to consumers, and other societal benefits such as improved energy security and reduced emissions of pollutants and greenhouse gases. As required by the Energy Independence and Security Act of 2007 (EISA), NHTSA sets attribute-based corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards that are based on a mathematical function. For purposes of MYs 2012-2016, as for MY 2011 passenger cars and MYs 2008-2011 light trucks, the CAFE standards have been based on vehicle footprint.
