  1. Chevy Volt Buying/Selling Tax Credit & Fees
    Thinking about buying a used EV and claiming the $4,000 tax credit? The used-vehicle credit is not bound by the domestic sourcing requirements that apply for new EVs, but it does come with conditions: Buyers can’t make more than $75,000 annually or $150,000 a year in jointly filed taxes. The...

    Is it true, that when you lease a Bolt or Volt, the tax credit (which now stands at $3,750) goes to the leasing company, which in this case is a part of GM, and the customer never sees it at all? If that;s true then the Federal Law, which established that credit to encourage electric car...

    Can someone please tell me if the $7500 federal tax credit begins to phase out after either: 1. The manufacturer (GM) has sold 200,000 qualifying units in TOTAL for example Volts, Sparks, Bolts ADDED TOGETHER. OR 2. 200,000 specific models for example Volts. Or 200,000 Bolts. Is it by model...
  5. Chevy Volt Buying/Selling Tax Credit & Fees
    This may be a little late since I already signed all of the paperwork, but I can't shake the feeling my dealer already claimed the federal tax credit. When I went to pick up they mentioned they traded the car to another neighboring state then traded it back for some reason. I didn't think...

    For those from Maryland, when you or your dealer filled out the battery capacity field on the Excise Tax Credit form, did you/they use the total battery capacity of 18.4 KWh? I got a copy of my form today, and was surprised to see that the dealer listed the battery capacity as 13.5 KWh. I...
  7. Generation 1 Chevy Volt (2011-2015)
    I bought a 2015 Chevy Volt with 2600 miles this last week. I was told by the dealer that it was a demo and was considered a new sale and eligible for manufacturers rebates.The sales contract reflects that it is a new sale. I asked the salesman if the dealer had claimed the tax credit. He said...
  8. Generation 2 Chevy Volt (2016-2019)
    Hi All, I was hoping to wait for the 2017 model year car because I want the ACC but am having a bit of a problem. My 2016 tax year was very lucrative and I would definitely be able to claim the full $7500.00 tax credit. I'm worried my 2017 tax year won't be as high. I'm wondering if I...
  9. Generation 2 Chevy Volt (2016-2019)
    Hi Folks, Has it been confirmed that there will be an EV $7500 tax credit in 2016? Also will the 2016/17 Volt will qualify for the same $7500 credit? Thank You
  10. Chevy Volt Buying/Selling Tax Credit & Fees
    My red 2015 Volt is exceeding my expectations!! I just went to to accountant to get my taxes filed, and he said in order to get the Ga state tax credit that I needed a '0 emissions' signed form from my dealer saying I'd purchased the car. I'll be going over to the dealer tomorrow, but honestly...
  11. Chevy Volt Buying/Selling Tax Credit & Fees
    I have found 2015 Chevy Volt with leather seats for 31K. The mileage on the car is at 1,500ish miles, but has never been sold, but was used as a GM company car. The dealer says the Tax Credit should be good as it has never been titled. Is there any way to check and make sure it is still good?
  12. Chevy Volt Buying/Selling Tax Credit & Fees
    Went to two dealers in the Chicago 'burbs on Monday. Neither had ever heard of pricing the Federal tax credit or the IL tax rebate (10% of purchase price, straight up cash) into a lease. Here's the math I got at both places: On a $35k car 8.25% tax due on full $35k (IL lease tax laws stink!!)...

    (I'm new to the forum and couldn't find a clear explanation through my research, so apologies if this is asked frequently.) I just recently leased a 2014 Volt and was curious about the Tax credit. (Btw I reside in NC) I understand that the leasing company may claim the credit when the tax form...
  14. Buying, Leasing & Selling - Spark EV
    So the DW drives the Volt, I have an SUV as a DD and I want to get into something comparable to the volt. I was thinking golf tdi, but the spark ev looks pretty cool. Would we still be eligible for the tax credit on a second EV? Are there any other Volt owners who also have the SPARK EV...

    Hi, I'm new to this group and excited to finally drive electric! I am looking to lease a 2014/15 Volt and have learned GM does not pass on any of the federal tax credit to the customer.

  16. Chevy Volt Buying/Selling Tax Credit & Fees
    I submitted a request for a $7400 tax credit in my federal tax return. This was based on the kilowatt hours on the battery. This information was provided by the Volt advisor from OnStar. The IRS reduced my tax credit to $4500. I assumed that everyone would get the full $7500 tax credit...
