The state currently offers a tax credit based on vehicle weight, which is up to $5,500 for most modern EVs. This credit applies to a wide range of alternative fuel vehicles as described below.
Incentives for Purchasing an EV in Oklahoma
Oklahoma offers a tax credit incentive for the purchase of a new electric vehicle. The credit is only available for new vehicle purchases, not used EVs.
This credit applies to a wide range of alternative fuel vehicles, both individual and commercial, and rises in line with gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) as follows:
- 6,000 lbs and below = $5,500
- Up to 10,000 lbs = $9,000
- Up to 26,500 lbs = $26,000
At the time of writing, only the GMC Hummer EV comes in with a GVWR greater than 10,000 lbs, which places most EVs in the lower two brackets. You can also add federal incentives to Oklahoma's state-level tax credit.
