Iconic Disneyland attraction must switch to electric vehicles to comply with blue state's emissions standards

Disneyland must replace gas-powered engines in the Autopia ride with electric vehicles by February 2027 to comply with California's emissions standards, or risk closing the attraction. Honda, the ride's sponsor, failed to certify the engines in 2023, leading to a $56,250 fine and a mandate to transition to electric vehicles. Disney stated it is developing a plan to electrify the ride, which is one of the original attractions from the park's 1955 opening.
