What to Know About Buying Electric Vehicles After the Federal Tax Incentives End

  • On July 3, 2025, the U.S. House passed a tax and spending cut bill ending federal electric vehicle tax credits after September 30.
  • The credits, worth up to $7,500 for new EVs and $4,000 for used ones, had supported a more affordable EV market before repeal.
  • EVs cost about $9,000 more upfront than gas-powered cars on average, but lifetime fuel and maintenance savings still make EVs financially beneficial.
  • A 2023 analysis found EVs emit roughly half the carbon dioxide of gas cars by end-of-life even when charged with coal-generated electricity.
  • Experts warn loss of federal incentives will reduce EV affordability mainly for lower- and middle-income buyers, potentially slowing U.S. adoption below prior forecasts.
