    Comment 1 for ZEV 2008 (zev2008) - 45 Day. First Name: Jim Last Name: Stack Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: Subject: ZEV vehicles Comment: The only true ZEV vehicles are pure electric that chanrge on renewables Today 96% of the hydrogen is made from fossil fuels. This can be improved on but will take a long time. Today we already have very good Electric Vehicles liek the RAV4 with NiMH batteries that have lasted over 100,000 miles. Too bad Toyota stopped making it. We also have the Tesla and Ebox. Please do what is right. Jim Attachment: Original File Name: Date and Time Comment Was Submitted: 2008-02-16 11:19:59 No Duplicates. Comment 2 for ZEV 2008 (zev2008) - 45 Day. First Name: Star Last Name: Irvine Email Address: [email protected] Affiliation: NEV Owner Subject: MSV in ZEV regulations Comment: I as a NEV owner (use my OKA NEV ZEV about 3,000 miles annually) would like to see MSV (Medium Speed Vehicles) included in ZEV mandate so they can be available in California. I own two other vehicles FORD FOCUS and FORD Crown Vic. I my OKA NEV could go 35 MPH I would drive it at least twice as much as I currently do, and I would feel much safer doing so. 25 MPH top speed for NEV seriously limits its use and practicality for every day commuting.

  • To All Chrysler Employees, Dealers, Suppliers and Other Stakeholders

    To all Chrysler employees, dealers, suppliers and other stakeholders: With this week’s announcement of our nonbinding agreement for a strategic alliance with Fiat, I want to update you on where we stand in our continuing efforts to manage our business through the current economic downturn and put Chrysler on a path to long-term success. This potential alliance has the opportunity to greatly benefit America by preserving American jobs, stabilizing the economy including the important domestic auto industry and expanding the availability of small, fuel efficient automobiles. Throughout this process we will work with the U.S. government to ensure Chrysler meets all the terms of the U.S. Treasury loan agreement, including the submission of a restructuring plan that assures Chrysler’s long-term viability, timely loan repayment and energy efficiency. It is important to note that no U.S. taxpayer funds would go to Fiat. Our Vision, Mission and Strategic Framework Continues One year ago, we began our first full year as an independent company with a three- part strategic framework to help focus our efforts and align our resources toward our goal of returning to profitability. The framework is comprised of three basic principles: Enhance our core: invest in product enhancements; strengthen our customer focus; improve our relationship with our dealers; and recommit the entire organization to a new level of quality. Extend our business: develop or establish partnerships to provide new products; build off of existing products to extend into new segments; explore new and adjacent market opportunities; and accelerate new technologies and innovation. Expand our market: pursue global alliances to fill gaps in our product portfolio and open new geographic opportunities; increase global sales by building from our existing dealer network; and invest closer to our global customers by enhancing regional business operations and global engineering centers.

This model year (MY96), heavy-duty engine manufacturers are offering a number of natural gas models with additional models nearing production. Electric vehicle manufacturers have several products available with new models nearing completion. Although Caterpillar is the only manufacturer offering propane as a fuel option, Detroit Diesel Corp. (DDC) will be demonstrating a prototype model in 1996, and Cummins will release a model within MY96. Many manufacturers are offering natural gas engines in response to California Air Resource Board’s strict bus emission standards which are effective MY96.

    . 7 SUMMARY OF BOARD ITEM ITEM # 00-8-3: 2000 ZERO EMISSION VEHICLE PROGRAM BIENNIAL REVIEW DISCUSSION: The Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) program was adopted in 1990 as part of the Low-Emission Vehicle regulations. When the ZEV requirement was first adopted, low- and zero-emission vehicle technology was in a very early stage of development. The Board acknowledged that many issues would need to be addressed prior to the implementation date. The Board directed staff to provide an update on the ZEV program on a biennial basis, in order to provide a context for the necessary policy discussion and deliberation. SUMMARY AND IMPACTS: At this 2000 Biennial Review, the staff will present to the Board its assessment of the current status of ZEV technology and the prospects for improvement in the near- and long-term. Major issues addressed include market demand for ZEVs, cost, and environmental and energy benefits. To help assess the current status of technology and the environmental impact of the program, ARB has funded research projects to examine the performance, cost and availability of advanced batteries, fuel cycle emissions from various automotive fuels, and the fuel cycle energy conversion efficiency for various fuel types. In preparation for this 2000 Biennial Review, ARB staff has solicited input from interested, parties throughout the process. As part of this effort, workshops were held in March and May/June 2000. Draft versions of the Staff Report have been available to the public since March 2000. The Board will consider information presented by staff and all interested parties. 8 9 CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCES BOARD - NOTICE OF PUBLIC MEETING FOR THE BIENNIAL REVIEW OF THE ZERO EMISSION VEHICLE REGULATION The California Air Resources Board (Board or ARB) will conduct a public meeting at the time and place noted below to review the Zero Emission Vehicle regulation and progress towards its implementation.
