I didn't see anything in the article about this, but does the regulation also ban hybrid vehicles? Just curious.
It would be a bit funny if like... Chevy bolt = cool, Chevy volt = illegal
So, used prices go up more?
I can't see any issues with the pending affordability among people who can not afford a $60k plus car in a car dependent nation like the states....
The solution is public transit. Climate change will hurt the poor even more.
When was the last time any US state expanded its public transit....
California allocated over $1.3 billion in October 2024 for 27 public transportation projects under its Transit and Intercity Rail Capital Program.
How's that transit in California doing?
Pretty well, I'm literally about to commute by rail right now. How do you think climate change 🔥 has been working out for us?
It would be better if people under stood that the solution needs to be cheap for people so they can afford it. People don't pay for things they can't afford for very long.
It's a good thing that funding public transit is cheaper than the massive, civilization-ending cost of climate change.
Cool, what does that have to do with making cars needed for most low income houses (if you have transit available you are very lucky in NA) then banning the cheap ones while subsidizing the costly and more environmentally damaging ones to produce all while gaslighting the public into thinking climate change is their fault and not on the massive companies (who also get exemptions and loopholes us little guys don't)?
Damn, I never should have said the solution was more cars and gaslighting the public.
Methane can and should be made with renewable energy

What we need to do is ban the sale of hydrogen and gas that's extracted from the ground, not attack machines that can burn carbon neutral chemical energy
Edit: article is about petrol. Silly US Americans referring to liquid as gas
Edit2: can we not all agree the headline should say "ICE cars"?
article is about petrol. Silly US Americans referring to liquid as gas
Petrol is short for "petroleum" which can be many products
Gas is short for "gasoline" which is a specific product
Gas is long for gas. A state of matter that isn't solid, liquid or plasma.
