Thinking about purchasing a vehicle? A clean vehicle may be a great choice! There are many benefits to owning and using a clean vehicle, like cutting emissions for a cleaner environment and saving you money on fuel.  Â
Plus, to support Americans switching to sustainable transportation, the U.S. government is offering tax credits for buying both new and used clean vehicles, including electric vehicles (EVs), plug-in hybrid vehicles, fuel cell vehicles, and related equipment, such as chargers.
Available tax credits include:
- Up to $4,000 for used clean energy vehicles.
- Up to $7,500 for new clean energy vehicles.
- Up to $1000 for a home electric vehicle charger.
Whether you're considering a new or used EV, these incentives make sustainable driving more affordable than ever.
Before buying, you'll need to:
You can either claim your tax credit when you file your taxes or, starting in 2024, have the option to transfer the credit to a dealer and immediately reduce the price when purchasing the vehicle. Ask your dealer if they qualify.
Some states may also offer additional tax credits. Be sure to check your local government sites to see how your savings could stack up.
