The Clean Vehicle Rebate Program provides incentives for Delawareans and Delaware businesses to buy or lease new alternative fuel vehicles.

The vehicle rebate program encourages the deployment of electric, natural gas, and propane-powered vehicles as part of Delaware’s commitment to innovation in the transportation sector, reducing greenhouse gases, and improving Delaware’s air quality.

The Delaware Clean Vehicle Rebate is not a tax credit. It is a cash rebate for vehicles purchased or leased before April 30, 2023. The rebate must be applied for within 90 days of the purchase date.

The rebate program is for purchase of the following types of passenger vehicles:

• Propane
• Natural gas
