The Environmental Protection Administration is standing behind plans to increase fuel economy standards to 54.5 miles per gallon by 2025.
This is part of a mandated review of those standards, and a move applauded by Shannon Baker-Branstetter of Consumers Union.
Car-makers have been seeking to have the standards eased, saying they could make vehicles more expensive.
The final decision will not be made until 2018.
