Description

The struggling car industry is looking forward to some much needed relief.  

The Government's confirmed its slashing charges on importers who don't meet carbon targets by almost 80% and launching a full review.  

It's expected to save about $264 million in cost to consumers and will keep imported cars cheaper.  

Imported Vehicles Association Chief Executive Greig Epps told Andrew Dickens the target was difficult for many businesses to reach.  

He says this isn't going backwards, it is being realistic about encouraging the use of clean cars.
