The Roulez vert program will be temporarily suspended from February 1, 2025, to March 31, 2025. Vehicles registered during this suspension period are not eligible for financial assistance.
The list of eligible used electric vehicles is updated on January 1 and September 15 each year, allowing for the addition of newly marketed models.
The reduction in financial assistance amounts is ongoing, with lower rebates planned for 2025 and 2026. Applicants should verify the current value and planned reductions.
The applicable taxes are calculated on the vehicle’s price before the government rebate is deducted.
The date of registration in the applicant's name determines eligibility and the amount of the rebate, regardless of the purchase date.
If the rebate is applied by the dealer, administration fees should not be charged for this process. Applicants can alternatively refuse the dealer’s processing and apply online themselves.
The Québec government reserves the right to modify the Roulez vert program’s eligibility requirements and rebate amounts at any time.
Non-compliance with program conditions may lead to the requirement to repay any grant funds received.
