The current legislative sentiment is predominantly bullish, suggesting potential tailwinds from government policy.
The Stop CARB Act of 2025, introduced on March 18, 2025, and referred to the House Energy and Commerce Committee, would eliminate California's federal waiver to set independent vehicle emissions standards. This is structurally bullish for legacy automakers GM and Ford and integrated oil majors ExxonMobil and Chevron, which face reduced compliance costs and preserved ICE demand. It is structurally bearish for pure-play EV makers Tesla, Rivian, and Lucid, which lose a key regulatory tailwind and credit revenue streams. The bill is in early legislative stages with only 6 cosponsors and a companion bill in the Senate.
→ Eliminates the regulatory requirement for automakers to offer ZEVs, reducing dealer stocking requirements for luxury EVs and weakening the consumer price/availability comparison that favors BEVs in California and other CARB states.
The Motor Vehicle Modernization Act of 2026 (HR7389) creates the first statutory definitions for automated driving systems (Levels 3-5) in U.S. law, providing regulatory clarity for autonomous vehicle deployment. The bill has advanced from subcommittee to full committee in the House. Tesla and GM are best positioned given their existing Level 3/4 programs; Ford and Lucid face neutral near-term impact without current Level 3 products. The bill authorizes no direct funding — it is a regulatory modernization bill, not an appropriations bill.
→ Lucid can adopt industry-standard ADS certification pathways if it chooses to deploy Level 3+ features, reducing first-mover regulatory penalty for smaller manufacturers.
