Rebate Overview
Overview
The Santa Barbara Clean Energy EV Rebate is a program that offers rebates to residents who purchase or lease electric vehicles. Rebates range from $1,000 to $4,000, depending on income level and vehicle type. For example, households with incomes between 201% and 400% of the Federal Poverty Level can receive $3,000 for a battery electric vehicle, while those with incomes below 200% FPL can receive $4,000.
