"By model year 2016 vehicles must get an average of 35.5 miles per gallon. The requirements will add as much as $985 to a vehicle's initial cost, according to EPA estimates, but buyers will save about $4,000 on fuel over the life of the car, administration officials said."

That could be a good thing but how have they calculated that $4000?

Looks like they used $5 per gallon to calculate it.

Higher MPG = Less Demand = lower gas prices.

I am for cutting down on energy use and pollution.

Still, the poor man will have to pay more for a car while the rich guy can afford it. He will be saving money on gas while the poor guy is stuck with an old car.
