What is the Available Tax Credit on PHEVs and Electric Vehicles?

Tax season is here, and in the spirit of tax season, we would like to clarify a commonly misunderstood tax credit myth within the automotive industry. You have probably heard that some PHEVs and electric vehicles (EVs) are eligible for a tax credit, but do you know what that means?

Many people think a tax deduction is the same thing are the as a tax credit, but unfortunately that is not the case. A tax credit is a credit the government may grant tax payers for various things, like the purchase of an EV or PHEV, but taxpayers only benefit from the tax credit if they owe taxes for that tax year.

Mid-Size Alternative Powertrain (APT) Car: 2016 Chevy Volt

For the 2016 model year, Chevy introduced an all-new redesigned model of the Chevy Volt. The new model’s exterior, interior and motor had all been upgraded and its new features helped it win several awards.

The Chevy Volt is a plug-in electric hybrid vehicle, so it is powered by a battery, gas or a combination of both. Thanks to Chevy’s use of regenerative braking, the Volt has an excellent battery range of 53 miles and when the gas and battery systems work together, the Volt has a combined city/highway range of 106 MPGe. In addition to being efficient, the Volt is spacious and attractive, a trait that many PHEVs lack.

Premium Coupe: 2016 Chevy Corvette

Last year the Corvette Convertible was the most loved premium convertible and this year it takes the title as the most loved premium coupe. Powered by a 6.2-liter V8 engine, the Corvette accelerates from 0-60 mph in 3.7 seconds and it hugs corners and curves like a professional race car.
