What are EVAP Rebates?

EVAP rebates, or the Electric Vehicle Incentive Program, are essentially government-backed discounts intended to lower the cost of electric vehicles. Eligible drivers can save up to $5,000 off when they buy or lease an electric car like the Nissan LEAF. Beyond the financial benefits, these rebates also encourage eco-conscious driving by pushing for more zero-emission vehicles, ultimately helping the planet.

How Much Can You Save with EVAP Rebates?

With EVAP rebates, you can save up to $5,000 on a Nissan LEAF, but the incentives gradually decline over the program’s 5-year lifespan. They drop to $4,000 on January 1, 2027, $3,000 on January 1, 2028, and $2,000 on January 1, 2030. That means the earlier you take advantage of the program, the more you save. Check out the table below for a snapshot of how much you could save on a Nissan LEAF, depending on your purchase or lease terms.
