zero-emission

“To protect against these costly health emergencies, California must double down on investments to reduce wildfire risk, spur zero-emission transportation and energy sources, and align transportation funding with pollution reduction needs.”

To combat air pollution and stem the proliferation of greenhouse gases, the California Air Resources Board adopted a rule in 2022 to require an increasing percentage of new car sales to be zero-emission vehicles over the next decade.

EV sales in California are among the highest in the nation, with one in four cars sold in 2024 being zero-emission or a plug-in hybrid.

Since Tesla sells only zero-emission vehicles, it has regulatory credits to spare.

Electric vehicle charging ports now outnumber gas nozzles across the Golden State, a sign of the increasing number of zero-emission vehicles on the road.
