What your state still offers for an EV.
Pick your state, new or used, price and income band. Get the rebate, the annual EV fee, and the net price — in seconds.
Short answer: most states offer $0. A handful still pay — up to $5,000 in Connecticut, $3,500 in California and Massachusetts, up to $7,500 in Oregon for income-qualified buyers, and up to $19,000 in Washington, D.C. across combined programs. Federal credits are gone: the federal clean vehicle credits ended September 30, 2025, and the 30C home charger credit ended June 30, 2026. This checker counts $0 in federal money.
Confirm funding before counting on it. Funds run out, programs pause between funding cycles, and income and MSRP caps apply. A rebate listed here is not a promise — check the state program page and get it confirmed in writing before you sign.
The checker
All outputs update live when you change any input. Amounts are approximate, as of November 2026 — see the table and methodology below.
Enter the price before tax, title and dealer fees. Some programs cap the MSRP — see the note in your result.
Real programs use household size and filing status. These three bands are a simplification — the largest rebates are usually income-qualified.

Every state, at a glance
At least 15 states list a real program. Most of the rest are $0 for a rebate — but 41 states still charge an extra annual EV fee, roughly $36–$290 a year, median about $130.

* Fees are approximate. A fee shown without an asterisk is a published state fee (rounded); a fee shown with an asterisk is the $130 median estimate used where no published fee was found for this table. Your DMV may charge a different amount. Rebate columns show the maximum for the most favourable income band in this checker; your amount may be lower — or $0 — depending on income, MSRP and funding.
FAQ — answers first
Do federal EV tax credits still apply in 2026?
No. The federal clean vehicle credits ended on September 30, 2025, and the 30C home charger credit ended on June 30, 2026. This checker counts $0 in federal credits and only counts state programs.
Which states still offer EV rebates in 2026?
A minority do. California (MyFirstEV, $3,500 new / $1,750 used), Colorado ($750–$3,250), Connecticut (CHEAPR, up to $5,000), Massachusetts (MOR-EV, $3,500), Oregon (up to $7,500 income-qualified), Washington ($5,000 new / $2,500 used, income-qualified), Illinois ($4,000), New York ($2,000), New Jersey ($2,000), Maryland ($3,000), Vermont ($4,000 new), Maine ($2,000 new), Minnesota ($2,500 new), New Mexico ($3,000), Texas ($2,500), Delaware ($2,500 new), Pennsylvania ($1,000) and Rhode Island ($1,500) still list programs, plus Washington, D.C. (up to $19,000 across combined, income-qualified programs). Most states offer $0.
How much is the annual EV registration fee?
About $36–$290 a year in the 41 states that charge one, median about $130. Examples in this checker: about $100 in California, $200 in Ohio and Texas, $225 in Washington and $250 in Pennsylvania in 2026. Where no published fee was found, the checker uses the $130 median and labels it approximate.
Can I count on a state rebate when I buy?
No — not until it is confirmed. Funds run out, programs pause between funding cycles, and income and MSRP caps apply. Confirm funding before counting on it: check the state program page, confirm you and the vehicle qualify, and get the rebate or reservation in writing before you sign.
Does income affect my EV rebate?
Yes, often. Several of the largest rebates — California MyFirstEV, Washington's instant rebate and Oregon's Charge Ahead add-on — are income-qualified, so higher-income buyers may get $0 while lower-income buyers get the full amount. This checker uses three simplified income bands; the real program may use household size and tax filing status.
What is the net price after rebates?
Vehicle price minus the state rebate you appear eligible for. It does not include tax, title, dealer fees, or the annual EV registration fee, which this checker shows separately so you can see the first-year cost.
