California EPA lawsuit, Porsche Cayenne e-Hybrid, Toyota Avalon Hybrid, and electric delivery trucks: Today’s Car News
California filed suit against the EPA over its proposal to roll back emissions and fuel economy standards. Tis the season—or at least the latest of them—for new hybrids hitting the roads.
