Switching to an electric vehicle is not only great for the environment but also for our wallet. For New York residents, there are significant tax incentives and rebates available to make owning an EV more affordable. Programs like the Drive Clean Rebate from NYSERDA (New York State Energy Research and Development Authority) make it easier than ever to go electric while saving money.
NYSERDA Drive Clean Rebate
The Drive Clean Rebate offers up to $2,000 for New York residents who purchase or lease a qualifying electric vehicle. The rebate amount depends on the vehicle’s electric range:
