I hope not, c4c ate up the bottom end of the used car supply and that only hurts people at the bottom who right now can find serviceable vehicles for $1.5k-$3k. This is a hand out to auto manufacturers propping up a broken economic system that pursues profit growth at all costs when these auto manufacturers need to think long term about how to provide responsible transit to this country which will likely mean reduced volume and increased quality. I believe keeping an old car on the road for more years is less damaging to the environment than manufacturing a new one.

And the emissions improvements will be shit, most cheap cars on the roads are capable of 20+ mpg and reasonable emissions levels, it's a farce when the vast majority of emissions are created by global companies who lobby hard to not have to update their cheap and dirty infrastructure.
