Volvo is a brand that has long been popular among drivers who are concerned about sustainability. If you live in California, such as in the Walnut Creek area, and buy a new plug-in hybrid electric Volvo or a battery-electric Volvo – or a car from another brand that fits these specifications – you may be eligible for the California Clean Fuel Reward program.
The Program
Oakland area drivers looking to buy a new car may want to consider a plug-in hybrid or fully electric vehicle for several reasons. Still, the California Clean Fuel Reward program can offer a big incentive. If you live in the state and register your car in the state, you are eligible to get as much as $1,500 off your purchase price or lease. Keep in mind that the vehicle's battery capacity must be more than five kWh, and how much money you get off your purchase price is related to the battery size.
The Cars
Among the eligible cars and SUVs are the Volvo S60, S90, V60, XC40, XC60, and XC90 Recharge. All of these are plug-in hybrids except for the XC40 Recharge, which is a battery-electric vehicle. We've always thought there were a lot of great reasons to buy Volvo, including safety and design, and now, with the California Clean Fuel Reward program, there is another one.
Take Advantage Now
Here at Volvo Cars Walnut Creek, we have a great selection of new Volvo models, including hybrid and fully electric models. We'd love it if you came to see us in our showroom near Richmond to give them a test drive, learn more about them and see why the California Clean Fuel Reward program is only one of many reasons we believe the Volvo is truly the car of the future.
