Stellantis Commits to California's Emissions Standards, Boosting State's Clean Car Goals

Automaker Stellantis agrees to adhere to California's strict zero-emission vehicle sales requirements through 2030, despite potential federal reversals.

  • Stellantis, maker of Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge, and Ram, will comply with California's emissions rules requiring 68% of new light-duty vehicle sales to be zero-emission or electric by 2030.
  • The agreement includes investments in public charging infrastructure, with $4 million allocated for rural areas and parks in California and $6 million in other states adopting California's standards.
  • Stellantis's commitment is seen as a significant step towards California's ambitious goals to reduce pollution and transition to clean vehicles.
  • The automaker's adherence to the standards is designed to be Trump-proof, ensuring compliance even if future administrations attempt to reverse California's emissions policies.
  • This move by Stellantis follows previous agreements with other major automakers like Ford, Honda, Volkswagen, and BMW, further solidifying the industry's shift towards cleaner technology.
