California leads the nation in zero-emission vehicle sales.

This year, the share of zero-emission vehicle sales has slightly slumped, making up only 23% of light-duty vehicle sales.

“I think California stands out because we are the leader on so many things, including our clean car and zero-emission vehicle standard,” Rechtschaffen said.

Demand for new electric vehicles has flatlined in California, new sales figures show, raising questions as to whether automobile manufacturers can meet ambitious state mandates for zero-emission vehicle sales.

“California is proud to lead the country in zero-emission vehicle sales as the global market continues to innovate and surge,” the statement said.
