Electric Vehicle Incentives

Switching to an electric vehicle is cleaner, cheaper to fuel, and more affordable than ever thanks to state and federal incentives available in New York.

Key Benefits & Incentives:

  • NYS Drive Clean Rebate: Get up to $2,000 off the purchase or lease of 60+ new eligible electric vehicle models directly at the point of sale from participating dealers.

  • Federal EV Tax Credits: Combine state savings with federal tax incentives (up to $7,500 for qualifying new clean vehicles) to substantially lower your upfront vehicle cost.

  • Home Charging: Take advantage of special utility time-of-use rates and smart charging programs that offer cheap or rebated electricity for overnight home charging.

  • Cleaner Commutes: Enjoy perks like the NYS Clean Pass Program, which allows eligible low-emission vehicle drivers to utilize high-occupancy vehicle lanes.

  • Charging Infrastructure Rebates: Businesses and multi-family properties can tap into programs like Charge Ready NY 2.0 and utility Make-Ready incentives to offset the cost of installing public or workplace EV chargers.
