California\u2019s Air Sources\nBoard (CARB) has passed a brand new rule that says all industrial vehicles and\nvans bought within the state in 2045 must be zero-emission, in a bid to move\nthe business away from the dirty and dangerous diesel engines that power most\nof those automobiles at the moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It follows California\u2019s 2018 rule to\u00a0mandate that transit companies buy all-electric buses\u00a0starting in 2029, in addition to its long-standing Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) program for passenger<\/a> cars and trucks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

California\u2019s new decision could have much broader consequences. This bold move to reduce truck emissions will lead to some major changes in a traditionally staid automotive industry. Although they are only making up 7 percent of all vehicles on the road in California, diesel trucks are 70 percent of smog-causing pollution of the state, and 80 percent of diesel soot emitted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, California\u2019s\nrule will encourage the appearance of new competitors such as Nikola Motors\nwhich are producing hydrogen-powered heavy-duty trucks, as well as Detroit-based\nstart-up Rivian, that has a contract with Amazon to produce 100,000 fully electric\ndelivery vans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

14 other states have adopted\nits progressive ZEV program for passenger vehicles up to date. The program\nwas launched in the early 1990s and has urged automakers into developing hybrid\nand all-electric cars. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
