Newsom, in a statement Monday, revealed that he will offer the same EV rebate for Californians in the case that Trump gets rid of the credit.
"Consumers continue to prove the skeptics wrong - zero-emission vehicles are here to stay," Newsom said in a statement.
"We will intervene if the Trump Administration eliminates the federal tax credit, doubling down on our commitment to clean air and green jobs in California. We're not turning back on a clean transportation future - we're going to make it more affordable for people to drive vehicles that don't pollute," the governor added.
The Golden State EV credits would be funded by a relaunch of the Clean Vehicle Rebate Program, the state's electric car incentive program that closed in November 2023, according to a press release from the governor's office.
However, Newsom has a long history of hitting back against Trump's policies, having launched more than 100 lawsuits against the president-elect during his first administration alone.
