Advanced Clean Cars and Trucks in New Mexico
On July 3, Gov. Lujan Grisham proposed Advanced Clean Car II and Advanced Clean Trucks standards. The proposal requires 82% of new cars sold in New Mexico by 2032 to have zero emissions. Clean Trucks would require an increasing percentage of medium- and heavy-duty trucks be electric. If adopted, Clean Cars and Trucks would go into effect starting with the 2027 model year. The New Mexico Environment Department is holding meetings to hear from the public.
