2022 EV Tax Credits in Maryland
Alternative fuel options continue to grow in popularity as more and more manufacturers begin to focus on their EV lineups. As our Pohanka Automotive Group customers begin to familiarize themselves with these types of vehicles, we’d like to take the time to explain some of the incentives you can access. Read on to learn more, and be sure to contact us with any questions.
Federal Credits
The best place to start is by understanding what types of credits are available. Upon purchasing a new EV or PHEV, the federal tax credit can be applied to a buyer’s tax liability for the year, and this amount can be up to $7,500. However, it’s worth noting that certain restrictions apply, and after a manufacturer has sold more than 200,000 units of a particular vehicle, the credit will drop to half, and then expire after a year, so be sure to ask one of our team members if the vehicle you’re eyeing still qualifies. By doing so, you’ll be able to save in terms of your overall expenses in the long run, which customers can surely appreciate.
Maryland Incentives
While qualifying EVs and PHEVs are eligible for the federal tax credit, the state of Maryland also offers unique opportunities for drivers of these types of vehicles. For example, the Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment Rebate Program1 is offered by the Maryland Energy Administration and may reimburse some of the costs associated with purchasing and installing charging equipment. State residents can also utilize the HOV lane regardless of the number of occupants after receiving the associated permit, thanks to the Plug-In Electric Vehicle High Occupancy Vehicle Lane Exemption2. Furthermore, qualifying models don’t need to participate in regular emissions testing, according to the Electric Vehicle Emissions Inspection Exemption3.
Where to Learn More
There are several resources available for you to learn more about the available credits and incentives within the state. For a convenient and dependable source of information, count on the staff at your local Pohanka dealership. We can let you know which models are eligible, what benefits are available, when rebate and exemption periods expire, and more. You can also check out the Alternative Fuels Data Center, presented by the U.S. Department of Energy. This site offers a helpful list of laws and programs that EV drivers may qualify for. Furthermore, the state government website can also provide relevant info for you to access as well.
We hope this look at the 2022 EV tax credits in Maryland has proven useful. Pohanka Automotive Group is here to help, so stop by one of our locations today!

“ I recently had the most positive experience at Pohanka Chevrolet in the service department with David B., and I cannot recommend this dealership — or his assistance — enough! I usually dread dealing with anything related to my car. Since my vehicle is still under warranty, I’ve had to visit several other Chevy dealerships in the area, and unfortunately, I’ve had negative experiences time after time. From poor customer service to unreasonable repair timelines, it was incredibly frustrating. When my check engine light came on again, I decided it was finally time to try Pohanka for the first time — and I am so glad I did. This dealership will absolutely be my new go-to. I walked in without an appointment, and David immediately greeted me and began gathering detailed information about the issues I was experiencing. He was attentive, patient, and made sure every one of my questions was answered thoroughly. From start to finish, he demonstrated exceptional customer service — providing timely text updates and phone calls to keep me informed about the status and diagnosis of my vehicle. Everything was handled efficiently and professionally, and I now feel completely confident driving my car again thanks to David and the entire service team at Pohanka. After I complete some detailing and body work, I already plan to return to Pohanka for my scheduled maintenance. David is truly a class act, and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience. For the first time in a long time, dealing with a car issue was not a headache — it was genuinely a pleasure working with him and the team. ”

“ Once again, thanks to the Pohanka Chevy Service Team and specifically to David Beltran, my Service Advisor. The engine light on my Tahoe came on and I had AAA tow my Tahoe to Pohanka. David walked me through the service/extended warranty process for a HUGE fix, secured a loaner car while the insurance reviewed everything, kept great lines of communication open, and basically held this nervous lady's hand throughout. I felt like my car, as well as me, mattered. This is my 3rd vehicle I have purchased from Pohanka since 1995, and they secured my loyalty a long time ago and I keep being reminded why when I have such great experiences as this!!! Thanks David and Pohanka!!!! ”

“ I want to give a big thank you to Josh at Chevy Chantilly for taking great care of me during my recent service visit for my 2023 Chevy Suburban. Josh was very kind, professional, and excellent with customer service. He made the entire process smooth and stress-free, and I truly appreciated his communication and attitude. I also want to recognize the service manager (I didn’t catch his name). From the moment they opened, it was clear how well he runs the department checking in with customers, supporting his team, and staying on top of everything. You could really see the leadership in action. Everyone in the service area was moving quickly and working hard to help customers. It wasn’t just Josh the entire team was hustling, which really stood out to me. The only issue I noticed was after I got home, I saw that my Suburban was leaking oil. Unfortunately, my schedule is very tight, so I won’t be able to bring it back until next weekend. I also noticed some oil spots on the door and interior. Even though seat covers were used, I believe the technician could be more careful about keeping hands clean when handling the vehicle. That said, I’m confident this is something they will address, and it doesn’t take away from the excellent customer service I received overall. Because of Josh and the hardworking team, I’m still giving five stars and would absolutely recommend this dealership. Thank you again I appreciate the effort and professionalism. ”
“ Sophie was great. The purchase process was super easy. I called ahead we agreed on a price. The car was waiting and I was out the door with my new Tahoe in 2 hours. ”
“ Our sales person welcomed us into the dealership, listened to our vehicle needs/expectations, and found us a vehicle that met our budget. Management was helpful as well. ”
“ Great experience and prompt professional service. Adam was great. ”
“ I bought the truck almost a year ago and today my first service appointment, Albert Kearns was great very professional and detailed regarding the type of service and the waiting time, he definitely deserve 5 stars, but here’s why I put one star review acutely I wish if I can do ZERO STAR For WENDY (customer service desk maintenance department ) so rude and very bad attitude , not professional at all , no respect even more, never said Thank you or have a good day even when I ask about my truck and I provide her with all the information she couldn’t find it!!!!! ”
“ Told us there was a no hold policy and then they proceeded to hold a car for someone else as we were trying to buy it, after they already ran our credit but withheld financing details. Plenty of GM dealers - recommend looking elsewhere. ”

“ When I think of my past experience at Pohanka, I think of professionalism, respect, and fair pricing. The staff there, including Steve and Hunter were on top of things from the time we first got there. Sophie Jones, however, was the best! She made the entire experience smooth and fun. Nice job Pohanka! ”
