Toyota Hybrids Receive IRS Tax Credit Certification


Overview

Starting in 2006, hybrid car buyers now benefit from a tax credit instead of a tax deduction. The IRS has announced the specific credit amounts available for new hybrid purchases.

Key Points


In 2006, the IRS introduced a beneficial change for hybrid car owners under the Energy Policy Act of 2005. Instead of a tax deduction, purchasers can now claim a more valuable tax credit. Unlike deductions, tax credits directly reduce your tax bill, making them much more advantageous.

Eligible Vehicles


Not all hybrid vehicles qualify for this credit. The IRS evaluates and certifies eligible models, setting a maximum credit of $3,400 per vehicle. Here’s what Toyota’s hybrid models currently offer:

- 2005 Toyota Prius: $3,150
- 2006 Toyota Prius: $3,150
- 2006 Toyota Highlander 4WD Hybrid: $2,600
- 2006 Toyota Highlander 2WD Hybrid: $2,600
- 2006 Lexus RX400h 2WD/4WD: $2,200 each

If you purchased your hybrid before 2006, the deductable amount was typically $2,000. Purchases made after the start of 2006 can claim these updated amounts, with specified conditions.

Conditions


- The credit applies fully to the first 60,000 cars sold per model.
- For sales between 60,001 and 120,000, the credit is halved.
- From 120,001 to 180,000, a quarter of the credit is available.
- Tracking sales figures can be challenging, but Toyota is expected to assist customers with clear information.

Conclusion


Hybrid vehicles are not only environmentally friendly but also economically beneficial, offering savings on fuel and tax credits. With these incentives, Toyota hybrids are likely to be in high demand.
