Plug’n’Drive launches used electric vehicle incentive in Ontario

By CRM staff

Toronto, Ontario – April 16, 2019 – As of April 14, all used fully electric or plug-in hybrid vehicles became $1,000 cheaper for Ontario residents.

The Used EV Incentive program is sponsored by Plug’n Drive, which is in collaboration with Clean Air Partnership. The program is also heavily supported by M. H. Brigham Foundation.

“One of the biggest barriers to the mass-market adoption of EVs is the higher upfront cost,” said president and CEO of Plug’n Drive Cara Clairman. “However, most people often overlook the used marketplace. Used EVs are affordable and available, and this incentive will help more people join the EV revolution.”

All used fully electric and plug-in hybrid electric car models with a re-sale sticker price below $50,000 are covered by the incentive.

“Emissions from our vehicle tailpipes is one of the leading causes of greenhouse gas emissions and air pollution,” said Clean Air Partnership executive director Gabriella Kalapos. “By enabling more drivers to make the switch to an electric car, this incentive will help drivers contribute to a cleaner, healthier and more sustainable co To qualify for the incentive, drivers must:

  1. Test drive an EV at Plug’n Drive’s Electric Vehicle Discovery Centre in North York or at one of Plug’n Drive’s community outreach events around Ontario
  2. Attend an “EV 101” seminar on the benefits of electric driving and what to look for when shopping for a used EV; and
  3. Purchase a used EV within up to one year of taking the seminar and submit proof of ownership and insurance to Plug’n Drive. 

“EV 101” seminars will be held in numerous locations across Ontario and are free to attend.
