For hybrid electric AFVs, cruising range values are calculated using the “reasonable basis” test. Q: How must AFV labels be displayed? A: The labels can be displayed on two sheets placed next to each other or in a two-sided format. It’s up to the manufacturer. Q: When were the AFV labeling requirements effective? A: The AFV labeling requirements became on effective November 20, 1995. Q. Who should I contact if I suspect non-compliance with the FTC’s Alternative Fuels and Alternative Fueled Vehicles Rule? A. Information about possible illegal activity helps law enforcement officials target companies that merit scrutiny. If you know about such illegal activity, please file a complaint with the Division of Enforcement, Bureau of Consumer Protection, Federal Trade Commission, Washington, D.C. 20580 (202.326.2996).
