The trade group is urging states to reconsider their emission commitments, while environmental groups have said the concerns are overblown.
The article from The Detroit News discusses the ongoing battle between the auto industry, represented by the Alliance for Automotive Innovation, and California's stringent vehicle emissions regulations. The Alliance has been actively lobbying against these regulations, arguing that they impose unrealistic standards that could hinder the industry's transition to electric vehicles (EVs). California's Air Resources Board (CARB) has set ambitious targets for reducing emissions, which include a significant increase in zero-emission vehicle sales. The contention has escalated with the involvement of former President Trump, who has criticized these regulations as part of his broader critique of environmental policies.

The debate highlights the tension between environmental goals and the economic realities faced by traditional automakers transitioning to new technology.
