Understanding the used EV tax credit
When looking to buy a used electric car, such as the 2013 Ford Focus Electric, you might wonder about the perks that come along with it. The government offers a Used EV Tax Credit, encouraging drivers to opt for greener vehicles. This incentive allows for significant savings, but typically, it does not apply to private party purchases. That's where the game changes with Caramel, as we offer a unique workaround.
How Caramel makes you eligible for the tax credit
Buying your 2013 Ford Focus Electric through a private party transaction usually wouldn't make you eligible for the Used EV Tax Credit. However, by using Caramel to facilitate your purchase, we operate in the capacity of a licensed dealer. Here's the sweet spot: your purchase, through Caramel's unique process, becomes eligible for the credit because we buy the car from the seller and then sell it to you, essentially turning a private sale into a dealer transaction.
This clever approach allows you to benefit from the Used EV Tax Credit, which can be as much as 30% off the vehicle's sale price, up to a total of $4,000. Imagine the savings on your battery-powered car, making your eco-friendly choice even more economically attractive.
The eligibility requirements for the Used EV Tax Credit
For the IRS qualifications to apply to your 2013 Ford Focus Electric, the electric vehicle incentives hinge on a few factors. Caramel ensures that the vehicle you're purchasing meets the criteria for the second-hand EV credit eligibility. To begin with, the vehicle must meet specific efficiency and battery capacity requirements. Additionally, its original use must commence with the taxpayer claiming the credit.
We at Caramel take the diligence off your shoulders, verifying every aspect that would make your electric vehicle incentives applicable. With our thoroughness, you can rest assured that your 2013 Ford Focus Electric aligns with the IRS qualifications.
The role of Caramel in private party vehicle purchases
When it comes to private party vehicle purchases, there's a whole checklist of tasks that can turn what should be an exciting process into a daunting one.

Caramel manages the payment process, safeguarding against fraud and making sure that your money transfers securely.
