California to ban sale of new gasoline-powered passenger vehicles starting in 2035

The move is the most significant yet by a U.S. state aimed at ending the use of fossil fuel-burning internal combustion engines, and clashes with the pro-fossil fuel policies of President Donald Trump’s White House.
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) will turn Newsom’s goal into a legally binding requirement by writing regulations to mandate that 100% of in-state sales of new passenger cars and trucks are zero-emission by 2035. The board also plans to mandate by 2045 that all operations of medium- and heavy-duty vehicles be zero-emission where feasible.
Environmental groups praised the governor’s action on clean vehicles, but automakers were skeptical.
California said it was joining 15 countries that have made similar pledges, including Britain.
