Reducing emissions and saving the planet are not the only benefits of switching to an electric vehicle (EV) – granted these are huge benefits on their own. The switch is also a smart financial move. The 2023 tax season may have just come to an end but it’s never too early to start thinking about the myriad of tax benefits available to EV owners in the U.S.
Federal Tax Credits
One of the most significant incentives for purchasing an EV comes in the form of federal tax credits. Here’s a breakdown:
- New EV purchases can qualify for up to $7,500 in tax credits.
- Used EV purchases can qualify for up to $4,000 in tax credits.
- What’s more, you now have the flexibility to claim these credits either on your tax returns or directly at the dealership, reducing the upfront cost of your EV purchase.
- It’s crucial to ensure that the EV model you’re choosing meets the eligibility criteria.
EV Home Chargers
Don’t forget about the perks of installing an EV charging station at home. Here’s what you need to know:
- You can enjoy a tax credit of up to 30% off the cost of an EV charging station, including installation expenses (up to $1,000).
- This tax credit is limited to specific census areas, so be sure to check your eligibility before making a purchase
State Tax Credits and Rebates
Beyond federal incentives, many states offer their own tax credits and rebates for EV purchases.
- In New York, buyers or lessees of new EVs can benefit from a point-of-sale rebate of up to $2,000.
- Find incentives near you.
