they have similar law in Canada: https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/canada-electric-vehicles-20....

That’s literally the one I was talking about, it will still permit hybrid and there is no requirement for everything to be a BEV

> it will still permit hybrid

article says plugin hybrid, not just hybrid, which is kinda loophole.

a hybrid is still a hybrid that you can just keep filling up with gas and never plug-in.

yes, though in California cars required to be 0 emission by 2035

no? it seems to be the exact same rules as canada?

> 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.

I can't find any mentions of hybrids nor plugins in actual executive order: https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/9.23.20-EO...

it just says: zero emission, and hybrids are obviously not

that is the exact same language used for the canadian law. "zero emission" includes hybrid

https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/resources/documents/cars-and-light-tr...

your page is not law.

And the law does actually not define “zero emissions” as a car that makes no emissions lol hybrids are permitted by how it defines them
