Senate Rejects Tougher Fuel Mileage Standards »ó¿ø, °ÈµÈ ¿¬·á ¼ÒºñÀ² ±âÁØ °ÅºÎ
The Senate gave automakers a reprieve Wednesday by rejecting a plan to require that they produce cars, trucks and sport utility vehicles that run 50 percent farther on a gallon of gas. The industry and its unions lobbied hard against requiring a 36 mile per gallon average by 2015. Supporters of the higher standard said it would save millions of barrels of oil and could be reached through current and emerging technologies. Instead, the Senate by a 62-38 vote told the Transportation Department to develop new fuel economy rules over the next two years, but did not require specific mileage increases. Separately, senators voted 56-44 to exempt pickup trucks from future mileage increases. New York Times
