Bill Summary
Current law states that, with certain exceptions, a motor vehicle manufacturer may not own, operate, or control any motor vehicle dealer or used motor vehicle dealer in Colorado. The bill creates a new exception that allows the ownership, operation, or control of a motor vehicle dealer that sells electric motor vehicles of a manufacturer's line-make. An "electric motor vehicle" is a motor vehicle that can operate entirely on electrical power.
AI Summary
This bill creates a new exception to the law that generally prohibits a motor vehicle manufacturer from owning, operating, or controlling a motor vehicle dealer in Colorado. The bill allows a manufacturer that only produces electric motor vehicles and has no other franchised dealers of the same line-make in the state to own, operate, or control one or more motor vehicle dealers. The bill also repeals two existing exceptions related to used motor vehicle dealers and dealers that a manufacturer was operating as of January 1, 2009.
