Automakers Warn The Proposed US Emissions Rules Pose Challenges: Report - General Motors (NYSE:GM), Volkswagen (OTC:VWAGY), Toyota Motor (NYSE:TM), Honda Motor Co (NYSE:HMC)

The Alliance for Automotive Innovation representing vehicle manufacturers including, General Motors Company GM, Honda Motor Co Ltd HMC, Volkswagen AG VWAGY and Toyota Motor Corp TM has expressed concerns regarding U.S. emissions targets.
The association warned that the targets for vehicle emissions reductions are aggressive and can lead to challenges in manufacturing and supply chains, reported Reuters.
The target could also mean a swift transition to electric vehicles (EVs).
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) proposed emissions cuts are expected to result in 60% of new vehicles by 2030 being electric and 67% by 2032.
"In that context, EPA's proposed greenhouse gas standards for 2027-2032 represents a significant movement of the country's electrification goal posts – not by a little, but by a lot," the report quoted the automaker group.
The automotive group noted that the automakers will struggle to meet targets because of the supply chain snarls that make it challenging to procure EV batteries, motors and chargers.
