flag The federal $7,500 EV tax credit expires October 1, 2025, potentially affecting sales and prices.

flag The $7,500 federal EV tax credit, enacted in 2022, expires October 1, 2025, under a tax and spending bill passed during President Trump’s administration. flag While EV sales rose 7% in 2024, growth has slowed to a 1.5% increase in the first half of 2025, with a 6.3% decline in the second quarter. flag The credit’s end may reduce demand and push real-world prices higher, though automakers could offset this with lower sticker prices, financing deals, or cash-back offers. flag Some buyers may accelerate purchases before the deadline, potentially leading to temporary sales spikes followed by drops and production cuts. flag Despite the loss of the credit, 65% of intended buyers plan to proceed, driven by performance, fuel savings, low maintenance, and environmental concerns. flag The credit does not apply to vehicles over $80,000, so luxury and large trucks may see less impact. flag Final prices remain uncertain due to dealership negotiations, and while short-term market shifts are expected, long-term demand is seen as resilient.
