Advanced Clean Cars II Requirements
(Passenger Cars / Light-Duty Vehicles)
• By 2035, all new passenger cars, trucks and SUVs sold in California will be zero emissions.
The new regulation accelerates requirements that automakers deliver an increasing number of zero-emission light-duty vehicles each year beginning in model year 2026.
Sales of new ZEVs and PHEVs will start with 35% that year, build to 68% in 2030, and reach 100% in 2035.
5 Advanced Clean Cars II Requirements
(Passenger Cars / Light-Duty Vehicles)
Can I still drive my gasoline car after 2035?
Yes -
California is only requiring that all NEW cars sold in 2035 and beyond are zero- emission vehicles which includes battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles. Gasoline cars can still be driven in California, registered with the California Department of Motor Vehicles, and sold as a used car to a new owner.
The executive order will not prevent Californians from owning gasoline-powered cars or selling them on the used car market.
State and local government fleets have no requirement to end the use of their existing compliant vehicles. This means affected fleets may keep their existing combustion-
powered vehicles for the full useful life under the
Model Y ear Schedule.

• “…part of a broader strategy to deploy medium- and heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles (ZEV) everywhere feasible.”
• Affects medium- and heavy-duty on-road vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating greater than 8,500 pounds.
• Proposed implementation timeframe from 2023 to 2045
• Will be phased-in over the next two decades, allowing fleets time to replace their existing conventional medium- and heavy-duty vehicles with comparable ZEVs. • Plug-in hybrids (NZEVs) count same as ZEVs until 2035 8 Accelerating Zero

Exemptions:
• Emergency vehicles defined in California vehicle code section 165 are exempt, so this would include police, fire, and ambulance vehicles typically driven by peace officers or other authorized operators.
• ZEV chassis or complete vehicle is not available from more than one manufacturer
• Available chassis cannot be upfitted to meet fleet needs • Vehicle manufacturer delays
• If no ZEV is available or cannot meet fleets needs

•
Model Year Schedule - State and local government fleets, including city, county, special district, and State agency fleets, would be required to ensure 50 percent of vehicle purchases are zero-emission beginning in 2024, and 100 percent of vehicle purchases are zero-emission by 2027.
•
ZEV Milestone – (Based on T otal Fleet size / Vehicles in-service in the reporting calendar-year.) State and local government fleet owners may elect to meet ZEV targets using the ZEV Milestones Option as shown in Table 1.

Group 3 – Specialty Vehicles: Defined in the regulation as those that are Class 8 vehicles, and that either have:
1. A heavy front axle (rated to exceed 12,500 lbs.), or
2. A vehicle that is not designed to carry cargo and is configured to perform work that can only be done while the vehicle is stationary, and the auxiliary mechanism to perform that work is an integral part of the vehicle design. Examples include vehicles commonly known as vacuum trucks, digger derricks, drilling rigs, and concrete pump trucks.
*Solid W aste Refuse collection vehicles also fall under the specialty vehicle category. If the vehicles are class 8 and have a heavy front axle, they meet the specialty
definition.

F leet managers with vehicles in Milestone Group 3, which includes specialty vehicles, will have the most time to make decisions about the order and timing of vehicle replacements in their fleets. The specialty truck phase-in requirement starts in 2030, and by this time, ZEV technology is expected to have advanced to the point that range and vehicle weight are no longer barriers.

How will this proposed regulation affect existing trucks or equipment? State and local government fleets have no requirement to end the use of their existing compliant vehicles. This means affected fleets may keep their existing combustion-powered vehicles for the full useful life provided by Senate Bill 1 (Beall, Statutes 2017, Chapter 5) under the Model Y ear Schedule.
As an alternative to the Model Y ear Schedule, the ZEV Milestones Option is phased- in over almost two decades and allows fleets full flexibility to manage their fleet composition over the phase-in period, as long as the ZEV Milestone targets are met.

State and Local Government Fleets requirements include an exemption for cases in which a ZEV is not available for purchase and is needed to comply. The ZEV Purchase Exemption allows a fleet owner to purchase a new internal combustion engine vehicle and exclude it from the internal combustion engine vehicle removal requirement of the Model Y ear Schedule, or exclude it from the ZEV Milestones calculation.
Exemptions to purchase internal combustion engine vehicles would only be needed if the fleet cannot otherwise meet the ZEV targets. A list of vehicles that are not available as ZEVs or near-ZEVs will be kept on the CARB website, and fleet owners can apply for fleet- specific exemptions if the needed vehicle is not listed and if the fleet falls under the High Priority and Federal Fleets or the State and Local Government Fleet requirements. *Zero-emission truck availability (as of July 2022)
• 148 models in North America are available for order or pre-order. • 135 models are actively being produced and delivered to customers. • At least 35 manufacturers are producing vehicle Class 2b through 8 ZEVs.
