California to ban gas-powered cars by 2035

California Governor Gavin Newsom is set to ban all gas-powered cars by 2035, a development Democrats are hailing as a victory over “climate change.”

The move will be voted on by California’s Air Resources Board Thursday, and will establish strict quotas on new car sales for coming years, with a goal of 100% of new vehicles to be electric by 2035.

CNN reports: “Starting with 2026 models, 35% of new cars, SUVs and small pickups sold in California would be required to be zero-emission vehicles. That quota would increase each year, expected to reach 51% of all new car sales in 2028, 68% in 2030 and 100% in 2035. The quotas also would allow 20% of zero-emission cars sold to be plug-in hybrids.”

Newswars.com reports: The New York Times admits California’s imposition of the new rule is important as many other states will follow its lead on emission regulations.

The restrictions are important because not only is California the largest auto market in the United States, but more than a dozen other states typically follow California’s lead when setting their own auto emissions standards.

[…]

At least 12 other states could potentially adopt the new California zero-emissions vehicle mandate relatively soon; another five states, which follow California’s broader vehicle pollution reduction program, are expected to adopt the rule in a year or so. If those states follow through, the restrictions on gasoline-vehicle sales would apply to about one-third of the United States’ auto market.

If passed, the new regulations would come on the heels of Joe Biden’s Inflation Reduction Act, which dedicates $370 billion for electric vehicle tax credits, charging stations and investment in new “clean energy” initiatives.

It’s as yet unclear how cars being charged using electricity produced by coal-burning and nuclear power plants would decrease carbon emitted in the state, but that’s not a question being asked or addressed by so-called climate experts.

    • It’s a sure thing the price of EVs is going to spike. Ford raised the price $8,500 after Biden announced $7,500 in additional subsidies. I have no guess what will happen to classics such as you named.

  1. There’s not going to be enough electricity supplied to meet demand and electricity prices will sky rocket And that’s what they want .Its going to be disaster Stuck at a useless charging station for 3 hours waiting to get enough to get home .Totally useless stupid invention .How many billions of cats can be plugged in.charhing overnight without the grids going down. Just evil people

    • You know what? I used to object to calling Democrats Communists, I know a couple of honest Communists and I didn’t think it applicable or fair to Communists.. But Biden’s theft and giveaways and vote-buying and the central planning antics of many powerful Democrats sure do look like Communism. Cheers.

      • The goal of all communism is to enslave the people – there are communists who don’t know this but they are misinformed and just plain wrong; but it still doesn’t make communism OK or right. I’ve been to 3 communist countries back in 1977 – it was horrifying what people had to live with: horrendous tyranny, absolutely zero freedom, terrified by KGB and the like, they couldn’t own or operate a small business, everything was state-run and then there was the poverty and brainwashing – lots of brainwashing. Communism is just plain evil.

        • Capitalism under evil people isny any better And Monarchy discourse communism because the Monarch own everything and everyone .Most people dont understand that. Communism actually was far better intentioned in order to be fairer to everyone than monarchy
          Capitalism tends towards being monarchist and so communist too .

          • I’ve studied capitalism and communism for 55 yrs – you have NO idea what you’re talking about and no idea WHY communism was even conceived of as an idea or by who. Communism has NEVER worked anywhere except for the 12 guys at the top who enforce it and have all the money/wealth. The criminals who run things now are the one who destroyed capitalism, which is the only reason it isn’t working right now, but for most of my life it has worked when applied the way it’s supposed to be. You’ve been brainwashed, kid.

  2. In 2035 who knows what will be the reality. Of course it will be phased in. Has anyone pointed out to this maroon that PG&E can hardly keep the lights on now? Lets add all the electric vehicles. There are 7 million vehicles registered in L.A. County alone.
