How much can you save on an EV in Canada?
Almost everywhere in Canada, the federal EVAP rebate of up to $5,000 is now the whole of what a buyer can claim on a new battery-electric vehicle. Only Quebec, Prince Edward Island and Manitoba still run their own purchase rebate on top of it, and the largest of those is Prince Edward Island at $4,000. Several provinces that did offer one have ended or paused it since 2025 — B.C., Yukon, Nova Scotia, Newfoundland & Labrador and New Brunswick among them — and Quebec's program is scheduled to close at the end of 2026. Below is every program, what it pays, and who qualifies.
Amounts last verified against the official federal and provincial sources on 31 août 2026. Programs change with provincial budgets and without notice, so confirm before you buy.
Looking for help paying for a home charger rather than the car? Charger rebates by province covers B.C., Québec and the rest — including the conditions that most often cost people the money.
