ZEV mandate
A ZEV mandate is a rule that says car makers must sell some cars that don’t use gasoline or diesel. It helps the environment by encouraging electric cars.
The Zero‑Emission Vehicle (ZEV) mandate is a regulation that requires automakers to sell a certain percentage of electric or zero‑emission vehicles in a given market, such as California. It aims to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and promote clean transportation.
