My motorcycle doesn’t get 54 mile per gallon.
Our Government is out of control and is destroying this Country........
But then this is only a money making scheme anyhow. No car company can have an entire line getting 54mpg by 2025 or likely ever. So as the deadline approaches and the car companies are not there yet the Government will grant waivers for “monetary penalties”

No car company can have an entire line getting 54mpg by 2025 or likely ever. Light trucks were previously exempt from these rules, but the Obama Administration now includes them in the targeted 54.5 mpg CAFE average.
This is not going to impact just cars, but SUVs and work trucks.

The only motorcycles in my garage that get over 54 MPG are the little 200/250cc Yamaha dual sports. The Kawasaki Versys/Ninja bikes achieve 53 MPG. The Harleys and Yamaha Roadliner (1200cc, 96ci, 1954cc) v-twins get about 46 MPG. My wife's Piaggio BV500 might be close to 54 MPG. Nothing I own on 4 wheels does better than 27 MPG...even the Mercury Mariner Hybrid.
