State of New York intends to follow the path California achieve a ban on the sale of new thermal vehicles from 2035. All this will reduce emissions of pollutants in the transport sector. In particular, this decision will serve to achieve the goal of reducing CO2 emissions by 85% by 2050 across the state.
Gov. Kathy Hochul stressed that she has directed the Department of the Environment to finalize the rules to be followed during the transition. However, the subsequent roadmap will be very similar to the California one, which was approved in late August by the California Air Resources Board (CARB).
To reach the 2035 target, she must be the first reach some intermediate stages. For example, by 2026, 35% of new cars will have to be zero-emissions, and by 2030, 68%. So by 2035 zero emission cars will be 100%. It should be remembered that the California Air Resources Board has also predicted that plug-in hybrids with at least 50 miles of electric range may also continue to be sold. These vehicles will ultimately not need to account for more than 20% of automakers’ sales.
NEW: By 2035, all new cars sold in New York must be zero emissions.

To ease the transition to electric vehicles, New York State is also moving forward. a number of incentive plans to purchase battery-powered models and to build new charging infrastructure. As it turns out, New York State won’t be the only one willing to follow California’s path.
Thus, the path to more sustainable mobility appears to be paved for New York State. However, there are those who are skeptical about the possibility of achieving this goal in 2035. Speaking of California, this also applies to New York, Toyota number one he said he was very skeptical about the real possibility of endothermic car sales by 2035. In fact, for Akio Toyoda, electric vehicles will take longer to become mainstream than the media would have you believe. It is for this reason that Toyota will continue to offer alternative engines.
