PZEV stands for "Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle".

"A Partial Zero Emissions Vehicle is a vehicle that has
zero evaporative emissions from its fuel system, has a 15 year (or at least
150,000 mile) warranty and meets SULEV tailpipe emission standards. [1]" -
according to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PZEV - I would suggest seeing the
link for more information.


I am shopping for the same and had the same question...good
luck to you!


I would appreciate anyone's input on if a PZEV
works/functions differently than a non-PZEV, e.g. benefits or drawbacks.
