Correct me if I'm wrong but the program is open to all manufacturers, so it would not make US manufacturers any more desirable than they have been. So considering how US manufacturers have begged/lobbied/bribed Congress in the past not to raise CAFE fuel standards, on average the most fuel efficient cars are not from the big 3.
