 EPA: Federal Register: Minimum Driving Range for Dual Fueled Electric Passenger Automobiles
NHTSA was required to establish two minimum driving ranges, one for ``dual energy'' (alcohol/gasoline or diesel fuel) passenger automobiles when operating on alcohol, and the other for ``natural gas dual energy'' (natural gas/gasoline or diesel fuel) passenger automobiles when operating on natural gas.
The AMFA and its legislative history made it clear that the driving ranges were to be low enough to encourage the production of dual fuel passenger automobiles, yet not so low that motorists would be discouraged by a low driving range from actually fueling their vehicles with the alternative fuels.
From the viewpoint of the consumer, the necessary driving range may be dictated by the convenience of a range that corresponds to a typical workweek travel distance, or a daily travel distance for a fleet car.
