Iowa HF529 allows natural gas and electric battery-powered vehicles to exceed weight limits up to 82,000 pounds.

Iowa HF529 modifies the maximum weight limit for vehicles powered primarily by natural gas or electric battery. The bill allows these vehicles to exceed the standard weight limit, up to 82,000 pounds, provided the excess weight is due to the natural gas tank and fueling system or the electric battery power system. This change applies to vehicles operating on Iowa highways, with exceptions for specially permitted vehicles. The bill also removes fines for exceeding weight limits.
