2024 New And Used Electric Vehicle EV Tax Credit Explained (updated information on AGI requirements)
Welcome to Bob py Chevrolet’s YouTube channel I want to talk about the 2024 EV tax credit on new and used uh and try to get you as much information as possible until the IRS and the federal government changes their mind which never happen so don’t worry about that currently uh
First we’re going to start with adjusted gross income I will refer to it as AGI after uh this uh going to put two different links in the uh in the information section only because I am finding contradictory information one’s from the IRS one is from fuel economy.gov which is the site that uh
They’re directing everybody to so we’ll go to to fueleconomy.gov information which is uh for married filing jointly as long as you are at $300,000 or lower uh with uh just filing as head of household $225,000 filing uh individually $150,000 now different IRS one I found 150,000 112500 and 75,000 for the three AGI
Categories I’m going with the fuel economy.gov one until proven otherwise uh and we’ll you can get that verified when you’re in the process of purchasing also uh on the the vehicle on the new side SUVs have to be under $80,000 same with trucks $80,000 or less cars sedans hatchbacks flying vehicles $55,000 or
Less there is two separate parts to that first part $3,750 uh some of the EV battery components must be built or assembled in North America um currently you know Chevy GM come on guys we got to get this fixed so only right now the bolt EV and the bolt
E sorry bolt EV and the bolt euv qualifi uh they’re working on getting that corrected for the Blazer Silverado and the uh Equinox uh and then always check with the manufacturer and with the dealership make sure that the vehicle does qualify second part of that another $ 3750
Critical minerals and Battery mined or processed in the US or Free Trade Agreement partners um I’m not in a oh I used to be in geopolitical uh science is but uh I don’t know exactly who qualifies for that I’m guessing if it comes from Canada you’re good Mexico you’re good
Korea for example you’re good uh on the U side uh the max is $44,000 sale price has to be $25,000 or less sale price not the overall amount including taxes that’s very important information so like I said we’ll start with max out $7,500 credit by the way I should let
You know no tax credit means it’s coming off the sale price so you’re buying a $47,500 new EV electric vehicle and you get all $7,500 that sale price will now be $40,000 you do not have to wait till tax time to have that money come off it
Is being uh fronted to you and as long as you at the end of the year Meet the AGI requirements you are good on the U side the $4,000 same thing so it’s $25,000 sale price on the vehicle you’re going to be paying $21,000 before the government gets their share sales tax
