NAFA Sharply Critical of EPA/NHTSA GHG Phase 2 Standards
NAFA Fleet Management Association (NAFA) issued strong criticism of the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Phase 2 Standards.
The rule announced on August 16 significantly increases engine stringency levels for over-the-road segments and for vocational applications. NAFA asserted the stringency of these changes jeopardizes fleet managers’ budgets and ability to replace vehicles.
"The parameters of the Phase 2 rules do not take into account the realities of fleet operations,” said NAFA’s Chief Executive Officer Phillip E. Russo, CAE. ”The federal government has overestimated the impact of the new standards by assuming a more robust and fuller adoption of the standards by fleets over a shorter period of time."

It’s not just the Chevy Sonics, Ford Fiestas and Honda Fits that are taking hits, compact and midsize car prices are down as well. A combination of hot-selling new cars and low gas prices are doing in the pricing on smaller vehicles.
