The move is expected to prompt other states to follow California's lead and to accelerate the production of zero-emission vehicles by automakers.
One-fifth of automakers' sales after 2035 could be plug-in hybrids, which run on batteries and gas, but the rest must be powered solely by electricity or hydrogen.
Washington state and Massachusetts already have said they will follow California's lead and many more are likely to — New York and Pennsylvania are among 17 states that have adopted some or all of California's tailpipe emission standards that are stricter than federal rules. Transportation is the single largest source of emissions in the state, accounting for about 40% of the state's greenhouse gas emissions. But the transition will be painful for the state's oil industry. California remains the seventh-largest oil-producing U.S. state, though its output is falling as it pushes forward with climate goals.
Reaching the 100% goal by 2035 will mean overcoming very practical hurdles, notably enough reliable power and charging stations.
