Understanding the used EV tax credit advantage with Caramel
For many of us, the journey to sustainable living includes driving an eco-friendly car like a 2020 Hyundai Kona EV. But when you buy this electric gem as a private party purchase, you might think the perks end there. Fortunately, that's not the case with Caramel. When you purchase a used 2020 Hyundai Kona Electric Vehicle through Caramel, the game changes. Here's why: Caramel operates as a licensed dealer. This slight shift in the process makes all the difference, transitioning your purchase from a standard private party transaction to one that's eligible for the used EV tax credit.
The used EV tax credit is a significant incentive, offering 30% off the sale price of the vehicle, capped at $4,000. This lucrative credit is designed to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles by making them more affordable. However, typically, this credit doesn't extend to private party vehicle purchases. Caramel's innovative approach solves this by stepping in and purchasing the vehicle from the seller, then selling it to you, the buyer, thus making the vehicle dealer status kick in and the tax credit applicable.
How does the used EV tax credit work when buying through Caramel?
To simplify, the process with Caramel goes something like this: once you've struck a deal with the seller of a 2020 Hyundai Kona EV, Caramel takes over. We handle the DMV paperwork, secure the payment, and ensure the title transfer and registration are squared away. The used EV tax credit can be received upfront at the time of purchase, reducing the vehicle's price instantly, or as a credit when filing your end-of-year taxes. So, instead of waiting for tax season to reap the benefits, you could enjoy them right when you take the keys.
It's not just about the credit – Caramel's full suite of services
But Caramel isn't just about enabling you to take advantage of electric vehicle incentives like the used EV tax credit. We know that private party vehicle purchases can come with their challenges.

Delivery of your pre-owned electric car to where you are? You bet. These streamlined solutions are what make the experience of car ownership through Caramel easy and stress-free.
The IRS qualifications for clean vehicle credit made easy
To qualify for the IRS's clean vehicle credit, certain conditions must be met, including IRS qualifications specific to the vehicle, its battery capacity, and its previous use. The 2020 Hyundai Kona EV ticks all the right boxes for this. When transacting through Caramel, eligibility for the used EV tax credit comes almost automatically. We ensure that all the IRS qualifications are met, taking the guesswork and legwork out of your hands.
Electric vehicle incentives beyond the tax credit
Moreover, it's worth noting that electric vehicle incentives don't stop at the used EV tax credit. While that might be a primary motivator, choosing a 2020 Hyundai Kona EV through a private party purchase with Caramel opens the door to more. Vehicle protection plans, digital inspections to ensure you're getting a quality pre-owned electric car, and options for financing and insurance are all part of the package. It's a holistic approach to making your transition to an electric vehicle as seamless as possible.
