Minnesota Electric Vehicle Tax Credits, Rebates, and Incentives

23 Min. Read

With the recent adoption of the Clean Cars Minnesota Act, a rule that requires automakers to gradually produce more zero-emission cars such as electric vehicles (EVs), Minnesota is helping to drive the future of electrification.

While internal combustion engine (ICE) vehicles will remain available and the state doesn’t have any current plans to phase out sales for ICE vehicles, the state is accelerating EV adoption through a range of incentives—making it easier and more affordable for residents to embrace cleaner, more sustainable transportation across Minnesota.

From purchase rebates to renewable charging incentives, Minnesota offers a variety of programs to help residents and businesses make the switch to electric vehicles.

Here’s how you can take advantage of these savings to drive electric in the state of Minnesota.

Former Electric Vehicle Rebate

The Minnesota Department of Commerce previously offered residents up to $2,500 for a new EV purchase and up to $600 for a pre-owned electric car through the Electric Vehicle Rebate Program.

While this program was able to help make electric vehicles more affordable for Minnesotans to purchase and drive, initial funding has been fully utilized.

However, although current funding has been exhausted for this program and the rebate is not currently available, future program expansions may reinstate these rebates.

In the meantime, Minnesota residents can still access a variety of utility-based incentives to reduce the cost of EV ownership.

Revolt Program

Great River Energy, a wholesale energy distributor that generates and transmits power for 27 cooperatives in Minnesota, offers a unique opportunity for EV drivers to charge their EV with renewable wind energy—at no additional cost.

Through enrolling in the Great River Energy Revolt program, customers of participating electric cooperatives can ensure their EV charging is powered entirely by renewable wind energy, maximizing the environmental benefits of driving electric.

By participating in this program, EV owners can further reduce their carbon footprint while still enjoying the convenience of at-home EV charging with clean energy.

Minnesota EV Rebates

In addition to statewide initiatives, many Minnesota utility providers and cooperatives offer targeted rebates to offset the cost of EV ownership. Below are some of the available programs.
