The New Vehicle Efficiency Standard will save you money at the fuel bowser, bring cleaner cars to Australia and give you more choice of new, efficient vehicles.

What a New Vehicle Efficiency Standard means for Australians

The New Vehicle Efficiency Standard (the Standard) will help:

• save you money at the bowser
• give you more choice of new cars that are fuel-efficient, low or zero emissions
• reduce transport emissions, improving the air that you and your family breathe.

The Standard will apply to new cars sold in the Australian market. The introduction of the Standard keeps Australia on track to achieve net zero emissions by 2050.
