For electric vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) over 14,000 pounds—such as the 520EV—the credit can reach up to $40,000. This incentive lowers the upfront cost for companies transitioning to zero-emission vehicles. By taking advantage of this tax credit, businesses can reduce expenses while advancing their sustainability goals, making the 520EV an economically and environmentally smart choice for modern fleets.
Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP)
The Peterbilt 520EV is eligible for incentives through California's Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP). HVIP provides point-of-sale discounts designed to promote the adoption of zero-emission commercial vehicles within the state. For the 520EV, businesses can receive a base voucher amount of up to $120,000 per vehicle, dramatically lowering the initial cost of adding this electric truck to their fleet. By leveraging HVIP incentives, companies can achieve significant savings while supporting California's efforts to reduce emissions and advance clean transportation solutions.
Double the Incentive with HVIP Small Fleet Adjustment
The Peterbilt 520EV qualifies for substantial incentives through California's Hybrid and Zero-Emission Truck and Bus Voucher Incentive Project (HVIP). For the 520EV, the base voucher amount is up to $120,000 per vehicle. Additionally, a 100% base adjustment is available, doubling the voucher to $240,000 per vehicle. This enhanced incentive applies to public and nonprofit fleets with 20 or fewer vehicles over 8,500 lbs, as well as private fleets meeting the same size criteria and annual revenues under $15 million. These incentives make the 520EV an attractive and accessible option for businesses transitioning to zero-emission vehicles.
