Gasoline-powered vehicles made up 83.7 percent of the total light vehicle fleet in California in 2023, making internal combustion engine vehicles by far the most popular among the vehicles in circulation in the U.S. state. Alternative fuel vehicles—namely battery-electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles, and fuel-cell electric vehicles—amounted to an aggregated 1.5 million units in the Californian vehicle population, higher than diesel, natural gas, and propane models.
