Unfortunately, Utah does not offer incentives for the purchase of a new electric vehicle at this time. However, federal credits are available for EV buyers in the state if they fall below certain income caps and have enough tax liability to claim the incentive.
Other EV Incentives Offered in Utah
Utah offers the following incentives for electric vehicle charging, maintenance, or related benefits:
- PacifiCorp Level 2 Charger Rebate- Residential customers may qualify for rebates of up to $200 for Level 2 chargers on the approved chargers list.
- PacifiCorp Utah Electric Vehicle Pricing Plan- If you drive a plug-in electric vehicle, you can enroll in Utah’s time-of-use rate option. Under this option, the price you pay for electricity depends on when you use it. You may save money on your bill if you charge your car during off-peak hours.
