Toyota Motor Corp on Tuesday said it recognized the state of California's authority to set vehicle emissions standards under the U.S. Clean Air Act.
on Tuesday said it recognized the state of California's authority to set vehicle emissions standards under the U.S. Clean Air Act.California Air Resources Board chair Liane Randolph said the board was pleased with Toyota's decision. "Although we’ve had differences in the past, we look forward to advancing #ZEVs together on positive footing," Randolph wrote on Twitter, referring to zero emission vehicles.CARB, as early as Thursday, is set to adopt new vehicle emissions rules.
In 2019, Toyota joined other automakers in backing the Trump administration's effort to strip California of the authority to set emissions standards, saying the rule provided "vehicle manufacturers with the certainty that states cannot interfere with federal fuel economy standards." In November 2019, California said it would halt all purchases of new vehicles for state government fleets from GM, Toyota and other automakers backing then-President Donald Trump in the tailpipe emissions battle.
The EPA in March reinstated a waiver under the Clear Air Act awarded to California in 2013 to set its own strict tailpipe and zero-emission vehicle standards.
