Utah EV Incentives: Full Breakdown for 2026
Annual registration fee: Utah charges EV owners an extra $187.50/year on top of standard registration, meant to replace the gas tax revenue EVs don't pay. This is a recurring annual cost, not one-time — worth weighing against any purchase rebate over your ownership period.
Registration fee source: Tax Foundation, "Electric Vehicle Tax Treatment by State, 2026" (published Aug 2026, data as of July 2026).
Important: Utah does not have a general EV purchase tax credit anymore. What's available is EVRAP (the Electric Vehicle Replacement Assistance Program) — a grant specifically for low-income Utahns replacing a gas or diesel vehicle that's at least 8 years old (or recently failed an emissions test) with a new or used EV priced $48,125 or less. It's tiered strictly by income relative to the federal poverty level: up to $4,000 for households at 401-500% FPL, up to $7,000 at 301-400% FPL, or up to $10,000 for households at or below 300% FPL. If you don't meet the income and vehicle-replacement requirements, there is currently no Utah state EV incentive available to you.
With the federal credit also expired, most Utah EV buyers currently have no purchase-time credit available unless they specifically qualify for EVRAP.
Federal EV Tax Credit: What Utah Buyers Need to Know (Expired Oct 2025)
The federal EV tax credit under the Inflation Reduction Act (§30D) expired for vehicles acquired after September 30, 2025. It no longer applies to Utah buyers purchasing in 2026, with one narrow exception (see below). Here's what the federal credit used to offer, and what still applies to you as a Utah resident:
- New EV credit (expired): Was up to $7,500 for qualifying new battery electric vehicles bought before Oct 1, 2025.
- Used EV credit (expired): Was up to $4,000 for qualifying used EVs bought before Oct 1, 2025 from a licensed dealer, if the sale price was under $25,000.
- Income limits (new EV): $150,000 single / $225,000 head of household / $300,000 married filing jointly.
- Income limits (used EV): $75,000 single / $112,500 head of household / $150,000 married filing jointly.
- MSRP caps: $55,000 for sedans and wagons; $80,000 for SUVs, crossovers, vans, and trucks.
- Point-of-sale transfer: Since Jan 1, 2024, you can apply the credit as an instant dealer discount rather than waiting until tax filing.
Additional Utah EV Programs & Utility Incentives
Rocky Mountain Power and Dominion Energy Utah offer separate rebates for Level 2 home charger installation, typically $200–$400.
Always check with your local electric utility, as additional rebates for home EV charging equipment can add hundreds more in savings on top of vehicle incentives.
