How Do I Get My EV Tax Credit?

You will be able to claim up to $7,500 in credit against the federal income taxes you owe once you file for the year. You can only claim the EV tax credit during the year in which you purchased the vehicle. If you’re also eligible for a tax refund, you’ll receive both the refund and tax credit. We can also help you file for EV tax credits in California when you purchase a qualifying EV or PHEV at our dealership.
