Financial Help for EVs
Ride Clean Mass offers meaningful financial incentives to buy or rent electric vehicles (EVs). Our goal is to provide $5.35 million in rebates and support the adoption of 1,000 to 2,000 EVs in Massachusetts by 2025.
EV Rebates Overview:
- New EVs: Get $6,500 off the price of a new EV.
- Used EVs: Get $2,500 off the price of a used EV.
- Renting EVs: Get up to $100 per week for up to 4 weeks to help cover the cost of renting an EV.
How It Works:
To apply, drivers can follow our simple application process. If a driver has not yet purchased their EV, they can check their eligibility in less than 10 minutes. Once a driver has purchased their EV, they can submit an Incentive Application and receive a check in the mail once their application is approved. Drivers can also combine Ride Clean Mass rebates with other state and federal incentives.
