Join Plug In America in urging Mary Nichols, chair of the California Air Resources Board (CARB), the CARB Board, and members of the California State Legislature to close a gaping loophole that could deal a blow to the proliferation of plug-in vehicles just as the federal government is awarding billions of dollars to automakers to advance battery technology. CARB's Zero Emission Vehicle program has no minimum timeframe for vehicles used for compliance. Thus, BMW's one-year pilot program consisting of just 500 converted electric Mini Coopers leased at an astonishing $850 per month will earn the same full credit as a real vehicle production program. We're asking you to tell Ms. Nichols that CARB must close this loophole so that only vehicles offered for sale receive full ZEV program credit.
