• Up to $5,000 for a new battery-electric or hydrogen fuel-cell vehicle; up to $2,500 for a plug-in hybrid.
• The final transaction value must be $50,000 or less, except EVs manufactured in Canada, which have no price cap.
• Applies to purchases and leases of 12 months or longer, from February 16, 2026 to March 31, 2031 (subject to available funding).
• The dealership applies the incentive at the point of sale; no paperwork to file yourself.
