"California's Advanced Clean Cars II (ACC II) rule could dramatically accelerate electric vehicle (EV) deployment...Seventeen states - nearly 38% of the U.S. car market - are contemplating or have already adopted these standards.

"Section 177 of the Clean Air Act gives California the authority to set stronger standards than those set by the EPA, and allows other states to adopt California’s standards...if all 17 states adopt ACC II, more than 75% of all cars on the road could be electric by then."
