Incentives of up to $5,000Description
In order to encourage the adoption of ZEVs by Canadians and Canadian businesses, the Government of Canada launched the Incentives for Zero-Emission Vehicles (iZEV) Program in May 2019. There are many different makes and models of eligible zero-emission vehicles for purchase or lease that provide consumers with iZEV Program incentives of up to $5,000.
Eligible Applicants
To be eligible under the iZEV Program, a vehicle must:
- meet all of Canada’s Motor Vehicle Safety Standards;
- be meant for use on public streets, roads, and highways; and
- have at least four functioning wheels and be able to drive on a highway (in other words, not a low-speed vehicle)
Eligible Expenses
There are two levels of incentives:
- Battery-electric, hydrogen fuel cell, and longer range plug-in hybrid vehicles are eligible for up to $5,000;
- longer range plug-in vehicles have a battery capacity of at least 15 kWh (kilowatt-hours)
- Shorter range plug-in hybrid electric vehicles are eligible for up to $2,500;
