Comparing the Standard and Charge Ahead Rebates

Due to overwhelming demand and limited funding, rebates are suspended as of May 1, 2023. Any vehicles purchased or leased on or after May 1, 2023 are not eligible to apply for the rebate. Funding for OCVRP has been exhausted and a wait list is in effect for all applications. Qualified applicants who purchased an eligible vehicle prior to May 1, 2023, will receive payment when the program receives more funding in 2024. Once funding for new rebates is available again, the program will announce its reopening.​​
