What Spokane Shoppers Should Know About Honda EVs

Prologue is Honda’s all-electric SUV. Eligibility for the new EV purchase credit depends on trim, assembly, and battery sourcing. We’ll verify the VIN for you at the time of sale.

A used EV from our lot may qualify for up to $4,000 if it meets §25E rules (price ≤ $25k, income limits, dealer sale, etc.). We’ll help you confirm on a specific vehicle.

Traditional hybrids generally don’t qualify for the federal EV tax credit. Plug-in hybrids (PHEVs) and EVs may qualify if they meet VIN-specific rules.
Final eligibility is determined at time of sale via the official IRS/DOE lists and VIN verification.
How the Credit Can Reduce Your Price Today
We check the vehicle against current IRS/DOE guidance and review buyer income limits and MSRP caps.
If eligible, you can transfer the credit to the dealership at checkout for an instant price reduction. We submit the IRS time-of-sale report.
You receive a copy of the time-of-sale report and still report the purchase on your tax return as required.
