Used Clean Vehicle Tax Credit in Seattle, WA

BMW Seattle is participating in the Used Clean Vehicle Credit program; a federal electric electric vehicle time-of-sale tax credit program for eligible customers.

Receiving your Used Clean Vehicle Credit is easy. BMW Seattle can include the credit in the sales transaction when you purchase your used Battery Electric (BEV) or Plug-In Hybrid (PHEV) vehicle with a sale price under $25,000 and two years older than the current year (2024). The credit is offered at 30% if the vehicle sale price, up to a maximum of $4,000.

During the sales process, you’ll have the option to transferring the credit to the dealer for a discount on the final sale price. If you choose to not apply it as a discount you may claim the credit when you file your tax return with Form 8936.
