Zero-Emission Vehicle Market Development Strategy

The ZEV Market Development Strategy is meant to help California collectively move forward and deliver zero-emission benefits to all Californians. It outlines how state agencies and stakeholder groups key to our transition ​can move together with the scale and speed required to reach the state’s ZEV targets:

%

of in-state sales of new passenger cars and trucks will be zero-emission by 2035.

%

of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles in the State will be zero-emission by 2045 and by 2035 for drayage trucks.

%

of off-road vehicles and equipment will be zero-emission by 2035.

The ZEV Strategy is a living document that will adapt over time based on feedback and lessons learned. If you have questions or feedback, please email us.
