Summary of New York State Bill A 9191

Bill Overview

This bill seeks to repeal the existing law that requires 100% of new passenger cars and trucks sold in New York state to be zero-emissions by 2035. If passed, this bill would effectively eliminate that zero-emissions vehicle sales mandate.

Key Provisions

  • Repeals Section 19-0324 of the Environmental Conservation Law, which currently mandates that 100% of in-state sales of new passenger cars and light-duty trucks must be zero-emission vehicles by 2035.
  • This would remove the requirement for automakers to gradually increase the percentage of zero-emission vehicles (ZEVs) in their new vehicle sales in New York over time, leading up to the 100% ZEV target in 2035.

Potential Impact

  • Without the existing ZEV sales mandate, the adoption of electric and other zero-emission passenger vehicles in New York could slow down compared to current projections.
  • This could negatively impact the state's efforts to reduce transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions and meet its climate change goals.
  • The repeal could also reduce consumer incentives and automaker investments in ZEV models and supporting infrastructure in New York.

Procedural Details

  • The bill was introduced in the New York State Assembly on November 3, 2025 and has been referred to the Assembly Committee on Environmental Conservation.
  • If passed by the legislature and signed into law by the governor, the repeal would take effect immediately.

Overall, this bill, if enacted, would undo the state's existing policy to transition to 100% zero-emission new passenger vehicle sales by 2035, potentially impacting New York's ability to meet its climate and clean transportation goals.
