“can be sold as new vehicles in the state.”

I think the important word there is “new.” There was a point in history, in the ‘50’s, where small trucks were in such demand that a company started buying up 1950 Plymouths and making them into light trucks. My guess is that the needed infrastructure to convert all of California will not be in existence. Imagine the gas lines of 1973, but with electric charging. Companies will start refurbishing used cars. Also, the state will issue waivers to manufacturers who perform some obeisance to the Green God.

Interesting point, though. The more recent cars have lots of computers. One of the problems with those cars is the computers are individually expensive and are only manufactured for a short time, making the cars nearly impossible to repair. So, the most popular used cars will be much older. Possibly topping out at the early two-thousands.

Stupid policies will accelerate the abandonment of cities. Already, many companies in New York have said they will not return. They have farmed out their employees to suburbs and even different states. More and more employees will work from home and collect their pay in non-income tax states. De Blasio will become the symbol of stupid policies. The best thing about the Left is it will cancel itself.
