Can You Get the Used EV Tax Credit When Buying a 2019 BMW i8 Roadster Private Party?

Understanding the perks of a 2019 BMW i8 Roadster private seller purchase

Buying a pre-owned car, particularly a sophisticated plug-in hybrid electric vehicle like the 2019 BMW i8 Roadster, is an exciting endeavor, but it often involves a lot of paperwork and can lack the benefits new car buyers enjoy. One of these benefits includes the opportunity to save on taxes through Federal tax incentives; incentives that until recently, have not been part of the private party vehicle purchase experience. That's where our unique approach at Caramel changes the game.

When you're in the market for a 2019 BMW i8 Roadster and you reach an agreement with a private seller, Caramel steps in to ensure your transaction is smooth, secure, and comes with attractive financial perks. Through our seamless service, the private sale is transformed into a dealer transaction, which in turn, opens the door to Used EV Tax Credit eligibility.

Eligibility for the Used EV Tax Credit through Caramel

The Used EV Tax Credit, which can shave up to $4,000 off the sale price of eligible electric vehicles, has traditionally been off-limits for private party buyers. This is because the IRS qualifications for EV credit require the transaction to take place through a dealership. Fortunately, Caramel operates as a licensed dealer, making your desired 2019 BMW i8 Roadster not just a dream car but a smarter financial investment as well.

We effectively buy the car from the seller and sell it directly to you, the buyer, hence meeting the IRS conditions. The credit amounts to 30% of the sale price, up to a $4,000 maximum, and you can choose to receive it upfront at the time of purchase or as a credit when filing your year-end taxes, bringing the sophistication of the BMW i8 Roadster within more affordable reach while promoting eco-friendly transportation.

The hassle-free path to claiming the Used EV Tax Credit

Engaging with Caramel simplifies the otherwise complex process of claiming the Used EV Tax Credit. There's no need for you to navigate the IRS paperwork or jump through hoops to prove eligibility – we handle all of that. The fact that you’re considering a 2019 BMW i8 Roadster, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, already positions you for these pre-owned electric car incentives. Here's how the process breaks down:

Once you've negotiated with the private seller, inform Caramel so we can initiate the process.

We then sell the vehicle to you, now operating as a licensed dealer.
