"They are mandating everyone buy an electric car."

In 2025 they're allowing hybrids until 2034. Starting in 2035 they're only going to allow EV's to be sold.
By 2035 the dollar and America will have collapsed and what kind of engine was in the vehicle you used to have will be irrelevant.
 
EVs are only feasible in a rather narrow set of scenarios. I see them being great for every city's fleet vehicles. Fed Ex/UPS/USPS delivering in cities would benefit.

Cold climates and mountainous areas are not at very good location for year round use of EVs. I have friends who love them, but they charge at home and use them locally. I haven't asked what they do for long trips.

Of course, in a decade the nation's infrastructure will be much more friendly to EV owners. Right now, charging away from home is a challenge.
There is insufficient non fossil fuel energy to support the production of the electricity needed for a massive switch over. And there are no plans on the horizon to change this. If ifs and buts were candy and nuts it would be Christmas for the democrats every day. Stupid ass virtue signalling pipe dream.
 
Your interpretation is wrong, a gas vehicle is still a vehicle.
There are 8 states that allow for registration of a vehicle to be out-of-state. California, and the other 12 states mandating EV's in 2035 aren't on that list. So, any car model year 2035 and on as of right now will have to be an EV to be registered in those states.

Not discussing registration of a vehicle to be out of state. We are discussing registration of a vehicle to be in state, after having been purchased out of state!

Understand?

It is YOU that doesn't understand. If you buy a car out of state that doesn't meet California's laws on vehicles, you can't register it there. If you own a car that doesn't meet California's laws on vehicles, you can't register it there.

Lie
 
It is the law in 13 states. The implementation of the mandate is set for 2035. That doesn't change that those states are mandating it.


Doesn't change that it's a government mandate. If you want to buy a car, you are going to be limited to choices the government gives you with no alternatives.

Sure, but then you can't register it in the state you live in because of the mandate. It says all cars of a certain year model on must be EV. So, you buy an 2036 ICE vehicle, and your state says EV's only, you can't register it in the state in which you live. It is also already illegal to live in a state and have your car registered out-of-state unless you just moved there, and then you only have a short window to re-register the vehicle.
You are confused in that you think only EVs are ZEVs.
All Electric Vehicles are Zero Emission Vehicles but not all ZEVs have to be EVs.
California law in no way claims all cars of a certain model year must be EVs. In fact, the law even allows for hybrid vehicles in 2035.
 
Trump did not say, they will be mandating. Trump said they are mandating everyone by an electric car.

Trump did not say Californians are mandating that everyone in California buys an electric car, he said they are mandating by an electric car. He’s such a shit.
Its amazing how limited you are
