The California Air Resources Board Rebate Thread

[roundpeg]

I am getting mixed signals on the eligibility of the Bolt for the $2,500 CARB rebate in California. It can be found on this list:

https://www.driveclean.ca.gov

But not on this one:

https://cleanvehiclerebate.org/eng/eligible-vehicles

Surely the car is eligible and this will be straightened out eventually, but will it be in time for those of us who are looking at December deliveries?

Any updates, please put 'em here!

The way I read the first link, the Bolt is eligible for the $7500 and for white stickers, but not yet for the $2500.

This, together with its omission from the second link would make me concerned. I'd get something in writing from the CARB until it actually shows up on the list (which it undoubtedly will before long)

I should have posted this link as well:

https://driveclean.ca.gov/pev/Costs/Vehicles.php

On this page at least, the Bolt is listed as eligible for the $2,500 Clean Vehicle Rebate (as well as the federal tax credit and the white HOV sticker). This will probably all get straightened out but I am saving a copy of this page just in case.

In that case I wouldn't worry...looks like all worked out already

I've been bugging the CRVP people about this for several weeks, and they have - until today - been unable or unwilling to give me an answer. But today, I got this message from them:

Good news! The Chevy Bolt is now officially approved for the California CVRP. https://cleanvehiclerebate.org/eng/eligible-vehicles

Now if Chevrolet would just deliver my car (built on November 28)!

Excellent, thanks. Same dilemma with delivery though.
