$50 QUESTION -- Category: Funny Cars
Starting in the year 2003, what percent of vehicles sold in California will have to be powered by electricity?
None. California recently gave up that idea as impractical.
50 percent.
10 percent.
Sorry! The correct answer is number 3., 10 percent. The California Air Resources Board had required that two percent of all new cars sold in the state must be electric by 1998 -- five percent by 2001, and 10 percent by 2003. To give carmakers more time to meet the quotas, in 1996, the Board made the 1998 deadline voluntary. Carmakers still have to meet the 2003 deadline, however.
