Clean Air vehicle eligible?

[ColleenS]

I just bought a 2011 CT200h used and assumed it would be eligible for a clean-air vehicle decal in California. However, upon looking at the CA DMV list of eligible vehicles, I don't see it listed. AM I missing it, or is it not eligible? Thanks!

If your vehicle was originally issued white or green decals prior to 2017, your vehicle is no longer eligible to participate in the CAV decal program (as of January 1, 2019).

I take this to mean that you cannot obtain a sticker, even if your vehicle never had one.

The CA government wants you to buy a pure EV, apparently.

Thanks, Dave!

Are proton batteries what we need in order not to make the climate worse by not doing anything that politicians are used to, while they only care about making money?

Li-ions and cobalt are not a solution, as the search for them is destroying the planet. It doesn't look like the climate situation will improve on its own.
