Those who want V8 can have their slice as well. But with CAFE, isn't by 2025, every vehicle has to get 54+ mpg out of the factory?
CAFE says that by 2025 the fleet average must be X amount of MPGs. Meaning that if they have enough electric, alernative energy, hybrid, etc vehicles to offset then they can have a lower volume vehicle that gets 8mpg, for example.
