Launched in March 2017, the Drive Clean Rebate is a point-of-sale (at the dealership) rebate of up to $2,000 towards the purchase or lease of a new electric or plug-in hybrid car. The rebate is available to all NY state residents, businesses, and government entities.

A 36-month lease term or ownership requirement exists for this rebate.
