Relating to the repeal of wheelbase and horsepower restrictions for the state's passenger vehicle fleet.
SB 1364 repeals existing restrictions on wheelbase and horsepower for Texas state government passenger vehicles by removing Section 2158.003 from the Government Code. This bill directly affects the Texas state government's vehicle procurement process, eliminating specific limits on vehicle size and engine power. The change takes effect September 1, 2025, allowing state agencies to purchase passenger vehicles without adhering to those prior specifications.
