Mobility Options

Participants may select between Scrap & Replace or Scrap & Ride mobility options.

Scrap & Replace

Eligible replacement vehicles are plug-in hybrid (PHEV), battery electric (BEV), and fuel-cell electric vehicles (FCEV).​ Participants can purchase a new or used vehicle or lease a new vehicle. Participants may only get a replacement truck or minivan if they are replacing a vehicle of that type.  Vehicles must be purchased or leased through participating dealerships. Leased vehicles must be listed on the  New Vehicle Eligibility List for Purchase Incentive Programs list. See participating dealerships here. 

Scrap & Ride

Participants who scrap their old vehicle but do not want to replace it with a new one have the opportunity to purchase an electric bike or use car-sharing and transit options. Contact your case manager for more information.
