CALIFORNIA SCALES UP 1ST-IN-US ELECTRIC TRUCK SALE PROPOSAL
Techlife News|May 02, 2020
California regulators strengthened a proposed first-in-the-nation rule that would force automakers to sell more electric delivery vans and work trucks in a state with the country’s worst air quality.
CALIFORNIA SCALES UP 1ST-IN-US ELECTRIC TRUCK SALE PROPOSAL

The updated rule proposed by the California Air Resources Board would require automakers to sell a certain percentage of zero-emission trucks each year. By 2035, the board estimates at least 20% of these trucks on the road would be electric.

“This will be transformative,” said Paul Cort, an attorney for Earthjustice’s Right to Zero campaign. “At some point, these manufacturers are going to kind of realize it doesn’t make sense to be making zero-emission trucks and combustion trucks to serve the same market.”

The new rule is a big jump from the one the board had previously proposed, which would have ensured at least 4% of these trucks on the road were electric. Environmental groups complained the rule was not strong enough, and board members heard them.
