Bruce, and others, IMHO any EV built by a major manufacturer; but, limited to sales in California, is a compliance car. Real EV are available nation-wide and are worthy of my general comment. I am not living in California (I lived there in 1970 & 71.) I buy my cars near home (in Florida), and I am Jealous of those of you who can purchase or lease an EV compliance vehicle because I can't... I would urge all states to adopt the laws requiring a minimum percentage of zero emissions vehicles, (similar to California.).
