What is the Maine electric vehicle rebate?

I currently own a gas guzzler. With the rising prices of gas, I might switch to an electric vehicle. I just want to see if I can get any tax rebates or incentives. Does Maine have an electric vehicle rebate?

Switching to an electric vehicle (EV) in
Maine
is definitely a smart idea. The Maine electric vehicle rebate offers up to $5,500 toward the purchase of a new EV, but only if you qualify.
However, you may qualify for several Maine electric vehicle rebates, so check out this list:
  • Buyers can get $5,500 toward the purchase of a new EV or $2,500 toward a used EV if they also receive aid from one of these programs: Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (LIHEAP), Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), or MaineCare. You must get preapproval from the state before you buy.
  • Maine also has a standard electric vehicle rebate, which is $2,000 on the purchase of an EV. You can only claim two of these in a 12-month period, but every Maine resident is eligible.
