PUBLISHED: August 24, 2022 at 12:46 p.m. | UPDATED: August 25, 2022 at 4:32 a.m.

In what may be the beginning of the end of the internal combustion engine in the
United States, California air regulators are set to vote Thursday on landmark
rules to prohibit the sale of all new gasoline-powered cars, SUVs, minivans, and
pickups in the state by 2035.

The rules are among the most far-reaching environmental laws in California in
the past 50 years, and although major challenges remain, including the cost of
new electric vehicles and the availability of charging stations, California’s
decision is expected to be copied by other states, reshaping the American auto
industry.

“Our previous regulations to make cars cleaner made improvements,” said Liane
Randolph, chair of the California Air Resources Board, on Wednesday. “But those
were incremental. This regulation will essentially end vehicle emissions
altogether.”

The first-in-the-nation rules, aimed at dramatically reducing greenhouse gas
emissions and smog, won’t ban gasoline-powered cars already on the road. Nor
will they prohibit the sale of used ones after 2035.



But they will require 35% of all new passenger vehicles that auto companies
offer for sale in California starting in 2026 to be zero-emission — basically
electric, plug-in hybrid or fuel cell — ramping up to 68% by 2030 and 100% by
2035.

Environmental and public health groups are cheering the rules, which were set in
motion by an executive order two years ago from Gov. Gavin Newsom.

“This is a really important, historic turning point in cleaning up pollution,”
said William Barrett, national clean air advocacy director for the American Lung
Association.

Passenger vehicles account for 29% of California’s greenhouse gas emissions,
more than any other source, including all factories and power plants. The new
rules will cut greenhouse gas emissions 50% from cars and light trucks by 2040,
the air board estimates, the equivalent of avoiding burning 915 million barrels
of oil.

The rules also will require tougher smog standards for new gasoline vehicles
over the next decade, leading to 1,200 fewer cardiopulmonary deaths due to air
pollution by 2040, the air board projects.

Opponents, led by the oil industry, say electric cars are still too expensive
for the average person. Phasing out gasoline-powered vehicles, critics say,
could lead to refineries leaving the state, gas stations closing and other
hassles for motorists who want to hang on to traditional cars, which in the
coming years could become increasingly obsolete.

“There are huge costs and logistical concerns that aren’t being addressed,” said
Kevin Slagle, a spokesman for the Western States Petroleum Association. “We
acknowledge there is climate change. But you can’t force people into vehicles
that don’t work for them. By forcing people too soon, you may spark a backlash.”

The auto industry, which has 122 models of electric vehicles for sale in
California now — up from 46 in 2019 — does not oppose the new rules. But it
wants the air board to regularly review vehicle costs, availability of battery
materials, and charging stations to see if the targets need to be adjusted.

“These are, without question, the most sweeping and transformative regulations
in the history of the automobile industry,” said Steve Douglas, vice president
of the Alliance for Automotive Innovation, a leading industry trade group, in a
letter to the air board last month.

“Automakers will work to meet the standards,” Douglas wrote, “but the board
should be aware the proposed requirements will be extremely challenging.”

California air officials are expected to pass new rules Thursday requiring an
increasingly large number of new cars sold in California to be zero emission.

Because of the burning of fossil fuels, which trap heat in the atmosphere, the
Earth’s climate is steadily warming. The 10 hottest years since 1880 when modern
temperature records began all have occurred since 2005, according to NASA and
NOAA.

Hotter temperatures have led to increased wildfires, more severe droughts, sea
level rise and other problems. California has led U.S efforts to reduce fossil
fuel burning, passing laws to expand renewable energy and providing incentives
for electric vehicles. The state’s greenhouse gas emissions peaked in 2004 and
have fallen 14% since then.

California is the nation’s main electric vehicle market. So far this year, 16%
of all new cars, or one in six, sold in California are electric. The two
top-selling passenger vehicles are both electric, the Tesla Model 3 and Tesla
Model Y.

Former President Trump tried to block California from setting its own car
standards, and said climate change was a Chinese hoax. President Joe Biden has
allowed California to set its own rules, and this month signed the Inflation
Reduction Act, which includes $369 billion for electric vehicle tax credits and
incentives for renewable energy.

Currently, 16 states with about 40% of the U.S. population, including
Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Colorado, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and
most of New England, have adopted California’s clean air rules. Many are
expected to approve their own phase-outs of gasoline vehicles.

Two key questions loom. Will there be enough charging stations? And will people
be able to afford the new cars?

There are now about 80,000 charging stations in California. The air board
estimates 714,000 will be needed by 2030. Air board officials said Wednesday
that Newsom has put $10 billion in the state budget to help build charging
stations and offer other incentives to reduce the cost of electric vehicles.

As for sticker price, the average cost of a new electric car in the U.S. is
$66,997, according to a recent study by Kelley Blue book. The average cost for a
new gasoline-powered passenger vehicle is $48,043.

Randolph and and other air board officials said Wednesday that as numbers ramp
up, they expect electric cars to cost the same as gasoline cars by 2030. They
cited studies showing electric vehicles cost up to 50% less to operate because
drivers don’t have to buy gas, pay for oil changes or other expenses.

Supporters of the rule note that although Teslas can regularly exceed $75,000,
there are other models of new electric vehicles that are far cheaper. A new
Nissan Leaf, for example, starts at $28,495, while a Chevy Bolt starts at
$32,495 and a VW ID.4 has a starting price of $42,525.



More than 40 other countries already have committed to phasing out new gasoline
vehicles. Germany, Great Britain, Israel and Sweden have a ban that begins in
2030, five years before California’s. Others, such as Canada, China, Italy and
South Korea have a 2035 phase-out date. Others have committed to 2040, including
India, Mexico, New Zealand, and Spain.

“In the coming years, we’ll see a wider range of electric vehicles on the road —
everything from passenger vehicles to SUVs,” said Barrett. “There will be a
robust network of charging stations, as common as gasoline stations you see now.
It will just be a normal part of everyday life. As the vehicle population ages,
gasoline vehicles will increasingly be replaced with vehicles that don’t
pollute.”
