he short answer is that modern automotive progress is driven by fuel-efficiency concerns, which are on the agendas of every major government. Witness the ever-evolving European Union legislation on economy and emissions targets. California’s Air Resources Board (and the 16 other U.S. states who copy those regulations) has certainly had its say, as well as the U.S. government’s CAFE mandates, and China’s State Environmental Protection Administration (which typically follows in the wake of the EU) and Japan’s Ministry of the Environment are in the conversation, too. It was the EU, however, that led the procession around this particular corner in the wake of 1992’s Kyoto Protocol.
