Sorry to resurrect this forum but thought this info may be helpful. California resident and first time Jeep owner here. I purchased a Wrangler 4xe in June (and loving it) and looked all over to find out whether the 4xe would qualify for the HOV Clean Air Decals, as I was a bit surprised to not see it on their website since the Grand Cherokee 4xe is. Finally, I just decided to email the California Air Resource Board and their response is attached. To my surprise, they responded pretty quickly.

Great research and thanks for posting this. So it appears that this one is on FCA !

States still have exemptions for electric and hybrid vehicles for HOV lanes? Why? Virginia got rid of those years ago. I have a full electric car, and shortly now a hybrid, and I am totally against exemptions for electric vehicles for carpool. Too many of them, kind of defeats the purpose of promoting carpooling if the lanes are full of single drives in electric and hybrid cars!
And Prius drivers are the worst. Put them in the HOV lane and the will have traffic backed up for miles. Why do Prius drivers drive soooo slow???

At least in Ontario, Canada they go by the plates for the HOV.

In Ontario you can get "green vehicle" plates which allow you to use the HOV, but like someone said, you might be stuck behind a Prius, so the odd time I'm on those highways, I just use the regular lanes and open up the gas motor.

The green plates only perk is the HOV, so I opted to keep using my old gas guzzler plates.

..and the gas guzzler plates in charging spots probably freak out the EV elites.

Yea, the stickers look terrible. It would be much better if it was added to the plate somehow. There's an option to make to add a magnet behind it, which Im looking into

Y’all all need to move to Texas, only requirement for our HOV lanes is to have a passenger in the car with you. Nothing to apply for or pay or fill out, just grab a friend and go.
