The electric vehicle market in California could see significant changes if two bills introduced by a Bay Area state senator become law.
Senate Bill 680, one of the bills from state Sen. Nancy Skinner, D-Berkeley, would limit sales of electric vehicles to the manufacturer’s suggested retail price, which would make California the first state to limit the price of EVs, according to a release from Skinner.
The other, Senate Bill 233, would require all electric vehicles sold in the state to incorporate bidirectional charging technology, which allows a vehicle’s charged battery to be used as an outgoing power source.
