The move to greater fuel economy means greater labor content per vehicle and higher employment across the fleet. It will also include entirely new systems like hybrid drive trains and advanced diesel engines. But the size and ultimate realization of that opportunity depends partly on the decisions of US policymakers.

The Most Plausible Early Market consumers value fuel economy. That could yield more than 50 mpg of fuel economy—or usage of less than 300 gallons per year—and still be a lot cheaper than a plug-in hybrid or a fuel cell vehicle, he noted. New car buyers are not like pioneers, advocates and experts, Kurani noted.

During the meeting, GM estimated the auto industry as a whole could see penalties ranging from $1,300 to $4,300 per vehicle by 2031. GM, which in 2021 vowed to halt the sale of new gasoline-powered vehicles by 2035, said this month it could face compliance challenges under the EV efficiency rules and vehicle emissions regulations.

The alternative-fuel car evolved to reduce exhaust emissions and other problems derived from burning fossil fuels. The PHEV (Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle), a subset of the electric car, combines a primary electric motor with a much smaller back-up engine fueled with a hydrocarbon/biofuel mix.

The four-door sedan will deliver 40 miles on a charge; a small gasoline engine will recharge the battery as it approaches depletion, extending its range by as much as 200 miles. GM is developing more fuel-efficient vehicles. I blame management but it is sad that the engineers and union workers are going to get hurt too.
