Relates to creating a feebate program for medium and heavy duty vehicles
This bill creates a revenue-neutral feebate program for medium and heavy-duty vehicles (over 10,000 pounds gross weight) registered in New York. Owners of vehicles rated below 10 MPG or MPGe pay tiered efficiency fees (up to $45,000), while owners of vehicles rated 10 MPG or higher receive efficiency rebates (up to $150,000). The program adjusts fees and rebates annually based on market data, fuel economy trends, and zero-emission vehicle availability to maintain revenue neutrality. It requires dealers to display fee/rebate information and mandates public awareness campaigns about the program.
