California loves it Electric car. More than 2.1 million battery -driven vehicles were running in the state, and last fall there was more than one -quarter of the new cars sold there. The members are trying to guarantee that the future will be further maintained. In December, California received special permission from the US government to enact regulations that would only sell zero exhaust vehicles in the state by 2035.
The federal government's “abandonment of rights” must be expanded far beyond the California border. The other 17 states have said that they will be the lead in California with strict emissions, targeting the gradual abolition of gaskers in 2035. At the same time, these states account for more than 40 % of the newly used lightweight vehicles in the United States.
Or maybe not. Last week, in a wide range of presidential ordinances for green energy policies, the Trump administration said that it would end the state emission of “restricting the sale of gasoline driven cars.” At this point, the political messaging documents, which have the power of the law, have a California clean car goal on the Trump administration's cross line. Anyone who wins this battle can determine the future of an electric vehicle that has been sold and sold in Japan, not just in the United States.
The Trump administration has not yet officially moved to cancel the exemption, but California has stated that it will not leave more severe vehicle discharge standards. “California will continue to defend long -standing rights and duties to protect the health of residents,” said Lian Landolf, chairman of the California emission regulatory agency.
Old battle
If this sounds all the familiarity, that's because the country has previously experienced it.
California's exemption dates back to 1967. Congress has decided to create a special California exemption in the state of the state, due to such annoying air pollution issues in the state. More than 10 years. Since then, California has applied for more than 100 exemptions.
In 2019, President Donald Trump announced in a tweet that his administration would cancel the exemption from California, making it possible to set its own automatic emissions. At that time, he said that the movement would increase the safety of cars and create “employment employment.” However, even if the first Trump administration moved to withdraw California's exemption, the State Congress was four global, Ford, Volkswagen, Honda, and BMW to maintain several automobile emissions. I signed a contract with a car manufacturer.
Automakers are not sure to come to the table with California six years ago with California. 。
The California market is large enough, and even a car manufacturer, which is far from the United States, is paying attention to how it shakes. The state of positive states on climate regulation will require that car manufacturers are delayed by electrification to catch up. For example, Toyota claims that consumers have not been ready for battery electricity, and according to a strategy of stirring more hybrids and plug -in hybrid vehicles. Last year, Toyota Motor North American executives said the rules of California seemed to be “impossible.” However, in order to develop these rules, it is necessary for Toyota to invest in getting electric vehicles on the road.
