      <content:encoded><![CDATA[President Obama gathered auto executives, auto workers, environmentalists, and top federal and California officials at the White House this week to unveil a new consensus on fuel economy standards. His plan will harmonize the federal government's Corporate Average Fuel Economy or CAFE standards with tougher tailpipe standards for CO2 poised to take effect in California and 17 other states.

Obama traded up, according to close Detroit observer Jim Motavalli, who <a title="NYTimes' Wheels Blog" href="http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/05/19/obama-to-raise-fuel-economy-standards/" target="_blank">writes in  the New York Times' Wheels blog</a> that the new-and-improved CAFE is "roughly equivalent to those proposed under Californiaâ¿¿s tailpipe greenhouse-gas program." &hellip;<img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/IeeeSpectrumFossilFuels/~4/dGRYzek8Cxk" height="1" width="1"/>]]></content:encoded>
