State Fleet Zero Emissions Vehicle (ZEV) Acquisition Requirement

All light-duty and passenger state fleet vehicles must be ZEVs by 2040. To support the state fleet transition to ZEVs, state agencies are required to own and operate an increasing number of ZEVs every few years, according to the following schedule:

Year Fleet ZEV Share
2026 15% of vehicles must be ZEVs
2029 25% of vehicles must be ZEVs
2032 50% of vehicles must be ZEVs
2040 100% of vehicles must be ZEVs

For the purpose of this requirement, ZEVs include electric vehicles, hydrogen fuel cell electric vehicles, and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles. Exemptions apply.
