States do have varying emissions standards, with CA being the most stringent. Unfortunately (or fortunately depending on how you look at it), CARB rules often affect the other states because a manufacturer doesn't want to build multiple versions of a power train.
I believe CARB is the reason diesel is not extensively used in the US.
