Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) Production Requirements and Low Emission Vehicle (LEV) Standards

New Jersey has adopted the California motor vehicle emissions standards and compliance requirements specified in Title 13 of the California Code of Regulations. Manufacturers must meet the greenhouse gas emissions standard and the ZEV production and sales requirements. Under the state’s LEV program, the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection allows manufacturers who sell or lease qualified LEVs to earn and bank vehicle equivalent credits. For more information, see the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection LEV Program website.
