Massachusetts electric car rebates: Everything you need to know
MOR-EV program provides up to $3,500 cash back on EV purchases
The first thing to know is that if you're buying or leasing a new electric vehicle or fuel cell electric vehicle (FCEV) in Massachusetts that costs less than $55,000, you should be able to score a $3,500 rebate from the Massachusetts Offers Rebates for Electric Vehicles (MOR-EV) program. Just make sure you check MOR-EV's list of eligible vehicles to verify that your ride of choice is included.
The $55,000 ceiling may seem a bit low given that the federal government has an $80,000 ceiling for electric SUVs and trucks and applies its $55,000 ceiling only to electric cars. In effect, the Massachusetts government is saying it doesn't want to incentivize the purchase of luxury electric vehicles. Rather, it wants to focus on mainstream models that have a better chance of widespread adoption.
There is also no income ceiling for the $3,500 rebate, while the federal government's EV rebates have specific income limits that govern buyer eligibility. So you can get that $3,500 kickback in Massachusetts no matter how much you make — you just can't get it on a Lucid or a Rivian or any other fancy-pants electric vehicle that costs north of $55K.
What about plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs)?
Are there Massachusetts incentives for used EVs?
Can Massachusetts residents get any breaks on home charger installation?
What about federal EV tax credits?
