First Low-Cost Lease program in U.S.
Commerce is the first state to prioritize low-cost leases as part of an EV incentive program. While most EV models are not currently eligible for federal credits when purchased, all EV models are eligible if leased. To make new EVs affordable for all, Washington residents can use the federal credit to make leasing an EV as low as under $200 a month on some models.
How It Works?
Commerce finalized a contract with Energy Solutions, an experienced clean energy rebate program administrator, to administer the program.

- The program will reimburse automakers and dealers that offer point-of-sale (POS) rebates to eligible residents who lease or purchase an EV.
- POS rebates provide an easy-to-access discount at the same time as a purchase or lease agreement and require no advance or post-purchase application.
- The program will provide EV and charging education through various customer outreach and engagement activities, including ride-and-drive events that have been proven to increase awareness.
Common Questions
How do I sign up?
You do not need to sign up for this program. This program is open now, and available at participating dealerships for eligible participants.
If I purchased an EV before this program opens can I get this rebate to count retroactively?
Unfortunately we cannot retroactively provide a rebate for an EV purchased before the program opened. You can review other potential rebates or incentives at the Alternative Fuels Data Center or the Commerce website under Clean Transportation Updates, as well as looking into your local utility provider for potential charging infrastructure incentive programs.
Are funds stackable with other incentives?
Yes! A consumer can combine the rebate for this program with both the federal tax credit, state sales tax exemption, and other automaker rebates offered through the dealers if available.
What credit score do I need to qualify for?
You do not need a specific credit score to qualify for this program, but your credit score will determine the specific lease and purchase terms offered to you. The example terms we provided were based on a good credit score, and using publicly advertised automaker deals in April 2024, and shouldn’t be considered guaranteed prices when the program opens.
