Australia waters down fuel emissions laws in blow to Tesla

By: Bloomberg, FMTTesla recently withdrew from Australia’s Federal Chamber of Automotive Industries, which opposed stricter emissions standards. Australia’s government has bowed to political pressure and growing public backlash to water down planned vehicle emission standards, handing a potential win to Ford Motor Co and Toyota Motor Corp at the expense of electric car maker Tesla Inc.

Some popular four-wheel drives will also be moved into the light commercial vehicle category from the passenger vehicle category, such as the Toyota Landcruiser and Nissan Patrol, allowing them to pump out more emissions.

“This is a very moderate standard that takes Australia from being really the last place in this transition to the middle of the pack,” McLean said.
