Low-Emission Vehicle

 

Hybrid Vehicle

Today, better-engineered clean air cars are helping move California forward in the 21st century with less smog. We can make the choice to save our air and reduce hidden health costs by purchasing cars that are ARB-certified Low-Emission Vehicles (LEVs). LEVs with their more advanced technology produce 70% less hydrocarbons and 50% less nitrogen oxides than other new conventional models.

What Else Is Already Here or Just Around the Corner?

ARB's plan for reducing tailpipe pollution through a phase-in of stricter standards is being supported by exciting technological advances that are already available. Ultra-Low-Emission Vehicles (ULEVs) and Zero-Emission Vehicles (ZEVs) are making their debut. They are good for the environment and practical enough for everyday driving.
