A new license plate design is being rolled out for Oklahoma drivers, according to Lt. Governor Matt Pinnell.

The design has a red background with white lettering and has the words “Imagine That” on the bottom. There are also designs in the bottom corners, representing popular icons like The Golden Driller and the Oklahoma City National Memorial & Museum.

“It’s great to finally unveil the Iconic Oklahoma Plate design, which honors and highlights our truly iconic state,” said Lt. Governor Matt Pinnell. “Using color and intentional symbology, this design pays tribute to Oklahoma’s culture and history, nodding to iconic landmarks, our original flag, state animals, and more. This design celebrates much of what makes Oklahoma unique, and I am excited to see it out on the road.”

State officials said that beginning September 1, 2024, all 240 licensed operators in the state will begin issuing the Iconic Oklahoma Plate for newly purchased vehicles in Oklahoma. They added that, unlike previous plate redesigns, Oklahomans will not automatically receive new plate. Oklahomans wishing to upgrade to the "Iconic Oklahoma Plate" can do so by paying a $4 plate replacement fee during their vehicle registration renewal at their local licensed operator.

The new plate will look familiar to many Oklahomans as it resembles the Red 46 flag that was used from 1911 to 1925.

A similar plate is already in circulation in the state but the official design adds some new details. Like

  1. Skydance Bridge
  2. Oklahoma City Memorial
  3. Route 66
  4. Sacred Rain Arrow Statue
  5. A Wind Turbine
  6. Waving Wheat
  7. American Bison, the state mammal
  8. Red-tailed Hawk, the state raptor
  9. Golden Driller, the state monument

The Oklahoma Department of Corrections says more than 250,000 plates have already been printed at the Dick Conner Correctional Facility in Hominy. The plate was designed by Freestyle Creative, a marketing and advertising firm based in Oklahoma City.
