Please Take a Survey to Help Develop a New Window Sticker for Electric VehiclesThis survey should take 3-5 minutes to complete. Your individual responses are anonymous and will remain confidential. Thank you for your participation.
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) wants your input on a new California Vehicle Window Sticker! As more Californians are looking to buy electric vehicles, it is important that consumers have access to meaningful information about these cars. To provide better information, CARB is developing requirements for a new window sticker. Please fill out the survey, linked below, to help us determine what should be included on the window sticker.

In 2022, CARB adopted the Advanced Clean Cars II regulations to establish the next phase of regulations beginning with the 2026 model year. Advanced Clean Cars II:
? Increases the stringency of the smog-causing criteria pollutant standards, known as LEV IV.
? Updates the zero-emission vehicle regulation to require 100% of new passenger vehicles to meet zero-emission standards by the 2035 model year.
? Establishes a suite of assurance measures to ensure zero-emission vehicles can provide enduring emission reductions.
Staff are now considering amendments to the ACC II regulations for GHG, criteria air pollutants, and ZEVs. In the November 2023 workshop, staff presented their new proposals to address emerging ZEV-related issues, such as requirements to help improve interoperability between electric vehicles and charging equipment and data collection to inform a consumer-facing window sticker.
In 2008, CARB introduced the California Environmental Performance Label (EPL) in response to Assembly Bill 1229, which required vehicle window-stickers to include a smog index and global warming index. In California, vehicle manufacturers were required to affix the California EPL along with U.S. EPA and Department of Transportation Fuel Economy Label (Fuel Economy Label). In 2012, the California EPL was incorporated into the Fuel Economy Label, which manufacturers can use in place of the California EPL to comply with California¡¯s label requirements. With more Californians looking towards purchasing ZEVs, CARB wants to ensure consumers have the information they are seeking. Staff are developing a proposal for an updated California EPL with improved ZEV metrics, which would accompany the current Fuel Economy Label.
