LADWP: Used EV Rebate
Save money when upgrading to an energy-efficient vehicle with a rebate from the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power.
Rebate Overview
Overview
QuitCarbon is excited to share the Los Angeles Department of Water and Power's Used Electric Vehicle Rebate Program. This program offers rebates up to $1,500 for qualifying used electric vehicles. Residents enrolled in the Lifeline or EZ-SAVE Low Income Customer Assistance programs can receive an additional $2,500, totaling up to $4,000 in savings. Please note that rebates are subject to change and may be greater or less than the value shown in the application. Applications are accepted on a first-come, first-served basis and are processed in the order received. Funds are limited, and rebates are not guaranteed; LADWP may waitlist applications if funding is anticipated to become insufficient. LADWP may also suspend program enrollment and stop accepting applications until additional funding is authorized. Applications received while program enrollment is suspended will be deemed received on the first day designated by LADWP for accepting applications to the program again, provided that LADWP may not accept applications submitted more than 30 days before such designated date. In addition, if, on any given day, LADWP receives multiple applications and funding may become insufficient to cover all such applications, LADWP may conduct a random selection by lottery to determine which applications may be processed, waitlisted, or rejected. Rebate amounts are subject to change at any time and may be greater or less than the value shown in the application.

- Rebate Limits: LADWP will only issue up to two Used EV Rebates for the same vehicle.

Members of the same household as the applicant who received the first rebate are not eligible to receive a second rebate for the same vehicle.
