Original Note:
US Corporate Average Fuel Economy (CAFE) regulations call for an increase in fuel economy every year. The concept of vehicle footprint was added in 2007. Models that run large have less ambitious fuel-economy targets. CAFE penalizes small trucks and rewards large ones. https://me.engin.umich.edu/news-events/news/cafe-standards-could-mean-bigger-cars-not-smaller-ones/
