What Is the EV Tax Credit?
The Clean Vehicle Credit is a federal incentive designed to encourage the adoption of electric vehicles. It provides up to $7,500 in tax savings for qualifying new EV purchases. The credit is split into two parts:
- $3,750 for meeting critical mineral sourcing requirements
- $3,750 for meeting battery component manufacturing requirements [2025 Feder...Incentives]
To qualify, both the vehicle and the buyer must meet specific criteria.
Acura EVs That Qualify
Currently, the 2025 Acura ZDX is the only Acura model eligible for the full $7,500 credit. Available in A-Spec and Type S trims, the ZDX offers an estimated range of 288–325 miles, making it a strong contender in the luxury EV market. [Which 2025...tax credit]
To qualify for the credit, the ZDX must:
- Be brand new at the time of purchase
- Have a battery capacity of at least 7 kWh
- Be assembled in North America
- Be priced under $80,000 for SUVs and trucks
Buyers must also meet income limits:
- Under $150,000 (single)
- Under $225,000 (head of household)
- Under $300,000 (married filing jointly)
Why Act Now?
After September 30, 2025, the federal EV tax credit will no longer be available unless Congress passes an extension. That means buyers who wait may miss out on thousands in savings. [Electric V...- Edmunds]
