💡 How to Stack Incentives in 2026
With federal purchase credits gone, the winning strategy is layering everything else. Here's the order to work through:
1
State Purchase Rebate or Credit
Your state's direct EV incentive — rebate at dealership or tax credit on filing. The biggest lever available in 2026.
Up to $9,000
2
Utility Company Rebates
Most utilities offer EV purchase or charger installation rebates. Stackable with state programs — most buyers miss this.
$200–$1,500
3
Federal Home Charger Credit
Section 30C still active — 30% of charger installation cost up to $1,000. Must be installed by June 30, 2026.
Up to $1,000
4
OBBBA Loan Interest Deduction
New federal above-the-line deduction on auto loan interest for American-made EVs. Annual benefit through 2028.
Up to $10,000/yr
