Can You Get the Used EV Tax Credit When Buying a 2017 Audi A3 e-tron Private Party?

Unlocking tax credits for your pre-owned plug-in hybrid

Navigating the world of IRS tax credits doesn't have to be complicated, especially when it comes to your goal of becoming the owner of a 2017 Audi A3 e-tron through a private seller purchase. While it's commonly known that new electric vehicle purchases come with enticing tax incentives, the waters become murkier when you're looking at second-hand A3 e-tron benefits. Traditionally, buying a used plug-in hybrid from a private party meant you'd miss out on those perks. But not anymore—Caramel changes the game.
