Federal Fuel Efficiency Rules for Medium- and Heavy-Duty Trucks Keep Getting Better

The rule will increase the fuel efficiency and reduce tailpipe emissions of tractor-trailers, package delivery vans, transit buses, and other large trucks sold between 2021 and 2027 in an effort to decrease greenhouse gases and improve fuel economy.
