Colorado EV Plan Will Not Ban ICE Engines

Despite being a CARB state, the current draft of Colorado's 2023 EV Plan will not follow California by banning the sale of new internal combustion engine (ICE)-powered vehicles.

The Colorado Energy Office (CEO), Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment (CDPHE) and the Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) are currently drafting the state’s 2023 EV Plan.

SEMA believes Coloradans, not the government, should be allowed to choose the type of vehicle technology that best serves them and their families, and encourages its members and enthusiasts to submit comments to the Colorado Energy Office by the Dec. 31 deadline. The state aims to issue its final plan in late January or early February.
