Medium- and Heavy-Duty Electric Vehicle (EV) Rebates
Medium- and heavy-duty (MHD) electric vehicle (EV) rebates address the higher upfront costs associated with electric MHD vehicles, including new or used battery electric, plug-in hybrid, and fuel cell vehicles, compared to their traditional counterparts. Rebates offset a portion of the initial expenses to purchase or lease MHD EVs, to encourage fleet operators to transition to electric vehicles. State programs offering these rebates help make electric fleet ownership financially appealing and support the broader shift towards sustainable transportation solutions.
