Are all Tesla owners from CA warrantied on their batteries for 10 years / 150k miles?
I read an article today that stated all EVs sold in California must come with a 10 year / 150k mile warranty on the battery.
I'm a bit confused because when I looked up the law it states it's only for PZEV:
I read on another forum: "BEVs are classified as PZEVs -- basically CARB classifies any vehicle that has a battery that is used for primary movement of the vehicle (e.g. not a "boost" motor like a hybrid) as a PZEV. BEVs are a subset of PZEVs". Does anyone know if this is true?
