Georgia Green Incentives
In the state of Georgia, the income tax credits are up to 20% of the purchase
price of the vehicle, or $5,000 (whichever is lower).
Plus, drivers of Zero-Emission vehicles are able to use the HOV lanes in busy Atlanta traffic with the alternative fuel license plate.
According to representatives at the Air Protection Branch of the Environmental Protection Division of the Georgia Department of Natural Resources, the only vehicles that qualify for Georgia tax credits are those rated as "Zero Emissions".
The low-speed Wheego Whip does not qualify for this discount, but the full-speed Wheego Whip LiFe does qualify. The i-MiEV will also qualify for this, however hybrids do not meet the requirements. Plug-in electrics with gasoline range extenders like the Volt currently do not meet the State requirements, however, having been added on December 1, 2010 to the ?alternative energy and advanced technology vehicle? list by the Federal government, Georgia?s stance on the Volt could change in the near future.
The other vehicles sold at Jim Ellis that qualify for these special tags are the Flexfuel vehicles , if in fact they are using E85 ethanol as their fuel source at least 85% of the time. (Proof of this may be required at the time of application.)
