Understanding the perks of a private party purchase

Buying a pre-owned electric car like the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV through a private party can offer a range of benefits. You might find a better deal than at a dealership, have a more transparent view of the car's history, and form a direct relationship with the seller. Private party vehicle purchases are becoming increasingly popular for the value and potential savings they offer. But traditionally, one significant downside to this route is missing out on certain electric vehicle incentives, particularly the Used EV Tax Credit.

When it comes to the IRS qualifications for tax benefits for EVs, the rules are pretty strict. The incentive is usually reserved for purchases made through a licensed dealer, which leaves private party buyers out in the cold. Until Caramel came along, that is. Our approach to private party car purchases ensures that buyers of eligible vehicles, such as the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV, can still get their hands on those sweet tax savings.

Leveraging Caramel to access the Used EV Tax Credit

Caramel operates as a licensed dealer, providing private party buyers the unique advantage of qualifying for incentives typically not available to them. Here's how it works with the 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV: Caramel steps in to buy the vehicle from the seller. We then sell it directly to you, the buyer. Technically, the transaction shifts, no longer just a straightforward private sale but one facilitated by a dealer. This pivotal change opens the door for the Used EV Tax Credit.

The Used EV Tax Credit can reduce the cost of your purchase significantly. Imagine getting up to $4,000 off the listed price of that Bolt EV? That's exactly what's possible with Caramel's innovative process. Whether you choose to see that discount reflected upfront at the time of purchase or as a tax credit when filing your year-end taxes, you’re potentially saving a bundle on your electric ride.

Breaking down the Used EV Tax Credit for your Bolt EV

Interested in the specifics? The Used EV Tax Credit is calculated at 30% of the sale price, with a maximum of $4,000. So, if you're eyeing a 2022 Chevrolet Bolt EV that fits within those parameters, you're looking at a potential tax credit of up to $4,000, thanks to Caramel's dealership capabilities.

Not only does this offer a rare opportunity to benefit from tax incentives on a private party purchase, but it also adds to the attractively lower prices often found in private sales. It's a win-win for savvy shoppers looking for the best value in their quest for a pre-owned electric car.
