no? it seems to be the exact same rules as canada?

> new cars sold in 2035 and beyond are zero-emission vehicles which includes battery electric vehicles, plug-in hybrid electric vehicles and fuel cell electric vehicles.

I can't find any mentions of hybrids nor plugins in actual executive order: https://www.gov.ca.gov/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/9.23.20-EO...

it just says: zero emission, and hybrids are obviously not

that is the exact same language used for the canadian law. "zero emission" includes hybrid

your page is not law.
And the law does actually not define “zero emissions” as a car that makes no emissions lol hybrids are permitted by how it defines them
