...this is a recent development and will have a major impact on the auto industry.
"...which will increase the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) standard from 25 to 35 miles-per-gallon for cars and light trucks. This is the first CAFE increase in 30 years."

I think that's what those guys were saying. I originally thought that each car would have to meet those standards due to an Automobile Magazine article discussing what may happen to the Corvette in the future. I believe that the CAFE standard is for avg. fuel economy across a corporation's fleet of vehicles.
