The auto-manufacturer aims high with a limited run of Cali-bound e-Minis

As California returns to requiring automakers to sell zero-emissions vehicles, BMW is apparently aiming to get in first on the gold rush. Automotive News reports BMW will export an electric version of its Mini to California. The state’s zero-emissions vehicle program will require nearly 60,000 plug-in cars to be sold in the state between 2012 and 2014.
