Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP)

The Clean Vehicle Rebate Project (CVRP) offers rebates for the purchase or lease of qualified vehicles. The rebates offer up to $2,500 for light-duty zero emission and plug-in hybrid vehicles that the California Air Resources Board (ARB) has approved or certified. The rebates are available on a first-come, first-served basis to individuals, business owners, and government entities in California that purchase or lease new eligible vehicles. Manufacturers must apply to ARB to have their vehicles included in CVRP. ARB determines annual funding amounts for CVRP, which is expected to be effective through 2023. No later than June 30, 2015, ARB and the State Energy Resources Conservation and Development Commission may adopt revisions to the criteria and requirements for CVRP such as a phase down of the rebate based on cumulative sales levels, eligibility limitations based on income, or other revisions to increase participation rates. For more information, including a list of eligible vehicles and other requirements, see the CVRP website.
