California, Stellantis strike vehicle emissions deal

Chrysler parent Stellantis and the state of California reached a deal on emissions on Tuesday after the company unsuccessfully sought to join a deal that other automakers had struck with the state in 2019.

Under the agreement, Stellantis will comply with California’s zero-emissions, light-duty vehicle sales requirements through 2030 even if California cannot enforce its rules. In addition, the company will not oppose California’s authority under the Clean Air Act for its greenhouse gas emissions and zero-emission vehicle standards.
