| Type of EV | Oregon Incentives | Federal Incentives |
|---|---|---|
| Hybrid - Not a plug-in | Almost all (non-plug-in) hybrids qualify for two Oregon tax credits - $750 each! (See Details) |
A tax credit of $250 - $3400 is available for qualified hybrids. It's complicated because the credit phases out after a manufacturer sells 60,000 hybrids of a given model. (See Federal Details) |
| Hybrid - Plug-in | Currently, Oregon's list of qualifying hybrids do not include any plug-in hybrids. As plug-in hybrids become available, it appears they will qualify for one of Oregon's $750 credits. | No federal tax credits are available for plug-in hybrids. |
