They hit the manufacturers because they're a large target.
An awful lot of people in or close to poverty still can't do without a car, and this will hit them the hardest. Even for people who make a modest living, an inordinate number of them drive something for their job.
55 MPG is an arbitrary and modestly ridiculous target that soon. A Prius stickers @ 51 MPG. And or course, SUVs and pickups are exempt.
At a loss of $15k per car, I'd have to seriously consider abandoning the California market were I Marchionne.
CARB are not ... nice people.
