"The two-fleet rule, which is contained in the corporate average
fuel economy (CAFE) statute, requires that a manufacturer divide its
passenger automobiles into two fleets, a domestically-manufactured
fleet and a non-domestically manufactured fleet, and ensure that each
fleet separately meets the CAFE standards for passenger automobiles."
