The trade group representing automotive importers has said it will not fight a combined 35 mile per gallon fuel economy standard being considered by the U.S. Congress, but its members want more time to meet the stiffer standard.
The Association of International Automobile Manufacturers wants the deadline for meeting the tougher standards pushed significantly back from the proposed 2020 timeline. The lobbyist group represents more than a dozen import nameplates, including Toyota, which had sided with Detroit automakers in seeking lesser standards that separate car and truck ratings. The only AIAM members that sell large trucks are Toyota and Nissan.
