Not surprised. It was overly ambitious to start with and the public hasn't gotten on board with hybrids and EVs in sufficient quantities to make it feasible.

Know what its being scaled back to? My guess would be 50 mpg, since its a nice round number but if they were concerned about that in the first place, the target would have been 55 mpg not 54.5.
