A manufacturer may earn early action credits for motor vehicles delivered for sale, offered for sale, sold, imported, delivered, or leased in New Mexico as set forth in CCR, Title 13, Section 1962.2.

Early action credits shall be calculated on a statewide basis and at the conclusion of the reporting for model year 2025 converted to ZEV values and PHEV values. The department shall verify, record, track, and report early action credits calculated on a statewide basis. At the conclusion of the reporting for model year 2025, the department shall follow CARB's procedures to convert early action credits to ZEV values and PHEV values as set forth in CCR, Title 13, Section 1962.4(g)(2)(A).C.

A manufacturer shall make this election in its report for model year 2025.D. In addition to earning early action credits, a manufacturer may earn onetime ZEV values and PHEV values equal to their converted early action credits, calculated on a statewide basis.
