Authorizes manufacturers of battery electric motor vehicles to be licensed as motor vehicle dealers.
This bill amends Iowa law to allow manufacturers of battery electric motor vehicles to be licensed as motor vehicle dealers for the vehicles they produce. Currently, manufacturers are prohibited from being licensed as dealers, with limited exceptions. This bill adds an exception for manufacturers of battery electric motor vehicles, allowing them to sell their own vehicles through a licensed dealership. The bill defines "battery electric motor vehicle" as a vehicle equipped with electrical drivetrain components and not an internal combustion engine.
