it's ford, volkswagen, bmw and honda. they should cut a side deal with california because there's a concern that if they don't deal with california, that california's going to come back and pursue tougher regulations and they won't have the same rules across the u.s. and that's what they want. they want to have the same rules. cheryl: they want stability, obviously. and plus, politics change and presidents eventually change and that's why it seems they're nervous. let's talk about gavin ne newso. he's making claims that the president is trying to scuttle california's car e emissions standards to help the oil industry. what do you make of that claim by the govern november of california. >> it's been an issue driving the regulations over the last few years, it was ideal that the auto industry cut with the fed back in 2012 because of the uncertainty with california, trying to improve that fuel economy rate and what was done at the time was an aggressive plan to basically get by 2026 to the average of about 37 miles per gallo

. >> volkswagen and ford had announced a tie-up just last month. >> yep >> kind of a co-production, you know, technology sharing type of thing. >> yeah. >> you have that on the one hand and the fact at volkswagen itself i think today unveiled an electric car for europe. this is not exactly a company that's behind the curve when it comes to electric cars why would tesla -- what would tesla bring it given all of that >> well, tesla is considered a leader when it comes to electric vehicle batteries. no doubt about that. they're not the only one but they're considered among the leaders. if you're an automaker, that's appealing. that's interesting we should point out again, volkswagen said this is ridiculous this is speculation. we are not interested in investing in tesla but you can see the appeal here. not just for volkswagen but other automakers if they had a chance to tap into that expertise that is within tesla >> yeah, and again, with car sales down in pretty much every major market, too. in germany it's been a major problem. it's just interesting if they find this growth strategy. i w

little history, california unveiled back in july that as it reached an agreement with ford, honda, bmw and volkswagen to reduce emissions, way more than what the trump administration wants. the trump administration actually wants to ease requirements until 2026. toyota, fiat chrysler and general motors were all then summoned to the white house in an attempt to keep them wit the president's proposal and away from the plan to keep emission standards low in california. governor newsom said one of these three holdouts is considering joining the california pact. right now, all of the auto names we talked about are higher. to hillary vaughn, live right outside the u.s. trade representative's office in d.c. give us the scoop. what's happening behind closed doors? reporter: liz, we just saw about an hour ago, japan's economic minister personally greeted by u.s. trade representative robert lighthizer. they stood outside talking for a few moments about the weather. it's a very hot day in washington, 90 degrees, but lighthizer said it is good golfing weather, if you're on the green and have this slight breeze.
