Sorry if Posted but Can't Find the Updated Tax Credit Information

So...Is the EQS qualifying for a $7,500 tax credit?

(again, sorry if this is posted somewhere)

As of 2021, yes. I am unaware of any changes happening for 2022 that would eliminate or reduce the credit.

Federal Tax Credit Update…

at the present time, the EQS is listed on the IRS web site as qualifying for the $7500 tax credit. Proposed legislation would eliminate the EQS as a $80K MSRP limit would apply and tax payer income would also apply ($250K/Yr for single / $500K for families). Congress is a mess so we may get a bit longer but plan to act fast as expensive vehicles not likely to qualify for long.

So would the existing $7,500 non-refundable tax credit remain in place for the EQS in 2022….until/if Congress passes the bill containing the new EV incentives?

Until congress updates the law, the existing $7500 tax credit is available for the EQS and its buyers regardless of income. For once, congress' inactivity pays off :-)

Is there a limit of how many EVs you can buy and claim a tax credit on in one calendar year?

no there currently is not. However you should only claim the vehicles you bought with the intention to keep. If you bought and sold several EVs and claimed the credit then I imagine it would only be an issue if you ever got audited. I am no tax expert btw

I'm going to drive all my cars that I buy. But I am planning on buying an EQS, and selling it when my custom-build EQS arrives. And I am also buying an IX for my wife which she will keep until the EQS SUV arrives likely next year. So I could end up using 3 credits this year.

Be sure to check with your City and State in addition to the Federal Rebates ($7500 appears to be in effect). In my case, I found Los Angeles and California have some additional rebates. $750 for the EQS580 and $750 for home equipment installation.

Yes. In Georgia we have incentives on the charging equipment.
