The Advanced Clean Trucks rule requires truck manufacturers to produce and sell certain percentages of new zero-emission trucks and buses beginning with model year 2027. The rule will accelerate the deployment of zero-emission medium- and heavy-duty trucks throughout the state and significantly reduce health-harming, climate-warming pollution.
