B.C. increases provincial rebate for electric vehicles to $4,000
The British Columbia government says it is improving its rebate program for electric vehicles to make them more affordable and accessible.
The maximum rebate for lower-range plug-in hybrid electric vehicles increases to $2,000 from the previous high of $1,500. As personal or household income climbs, rebate eligibility decreases on a sliding scale until those with a personal income above $100,000 or households with incomes above $165,000 are no longer entitled to the discount.
The president of the New Car Dealers Association of B.C. says the revised rebates will make zero-emission vehicles more affordable for lower-income individuals.“While we can appreciate that government always faces the difficult position of trying to manage program spending and budgets, we will be watching how changes for higher-income participants may impact uptake,” Qualey says in a statement.
