Daimler trucks meet greenhouse gas regs

Apr 1, 2012

FYI: TRUCKING NEWS IN BRIEF

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency has certified Daimler Trucks North America’s complete portfolio of model year 2013 on-highway, vocational and medium-duty vehicles as fully compliant with the new greenhouse gas 2014 regulations. DTNA’s compliance came a year ahead of the mandate for certification by the EPA and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration.

If finalized, this proposal would remove all greenhouse gas standards for light-, medium- and heavy-duty vehicles and heavy-duty engines, starting with EPA’s first greenhouse gas regulations set in 2010 for light-duty vehicles and those set in 2011 for medium-duty vehicles and heavy-duty vehicles and engines – which includes off-cycle credits like the much hated start-stop feature on most new cars.
