How Much Is the EV Rebate in Canada?
EVAP incentive amounts are designed to encourage early adoption and will decrease annually over the lifetime of the program. The highest rebates are available in 2026.
The EVAP program is scheduled to run until March 31, 2031, or until funding is exhausted. Incentive amounts are determined by the date the dealership submits the eligibility assessment, not the vehicle delivery date.

Under Canada’s Electric Vehicle Affordability Program
Yes, up to $5,000 as a federal EV rebate is available in Canada under the Electric Vehicle Affordability Program (EVAP) for eligible battery-electric vehicle purchases or leases in 2026. However, the rebate amount maximum will decrease in future years — dropping to up to $4,000 in 2027 and further in subsequent years — so 2026 offers the maximum incentive possible. Program availability is subject to federal funding.
The EVAP rebate is applied as an instant point-of-sale discount at the dealership, meaning it is deducted directly from the price of the vehicle at the time of purchase or lease. There is no separate application process for most buyers — the dealership submits an eligibility assessment to Transport Canada on your behalf.
Yes, in some provinces, Canadian EV buyers can stack federal EVAP incentives with provincial EV rebates, which can significantly reduce the total cost of a new electric vehicle. See the Provincial Incentives section below for details on rebates available in your province.
Yes, the EVAP rebate applies to both purchases and leases of eligible new electric vehicles. However, the rebate amount for leases is prorated based on the lease term: a lease of 48 months or longer qualifies for the full rebate, a 36-month lease receives 75%, and a 24-month lease receives 50% of the applicable incentive amount.
Yes, businesses and organizations in Canada are eligible for EVAP incentives. Businesses may receive up to 10 rebates over the five-year program period. Car-sharing organizations may receive up to 50 rebates per year. Organizations and businesses under common ownership (excluding publicly traded companies) are treated as a single entity for rebate limits.
No, the EVAP rebate applies only to new electric vehicles that have never been previously registered. However, demo vehicles (used for test drives at dealerships) with fewer than 10,000 km on the odometer that have never been registered to a previous owner are eligible for the incentive.
No, in most cases the dealership handles the EVAP submission on your behalf. The rebate is applied directly to your transaction at the point of sale. The dealership submits an eligibility assessment through Transport Canada’s online portal.
