PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Carvana (NYSE: CVNA), an industry pioneer for buying and selling used cars online, today announced the launch of new features that make shopping for and buying a used electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid (PHEV) easier and more accessible for its customers. The streamlined process highlights vehicles that qualify for the Clean Vehicle Tax Credit in the search experience and allows eligible customers to apply the up to $4,000 in savings from the credit at checkout.
“Carvana has always believed in using technology to make the car buying process easier, more transparent and more accessible for our customers. By integrating the federal tax credit directly into our ecommerce experience, we are driving convenience and savings for the increasing portion of our customers interested in buying EVs," said Dan Gill, Chief Product Officer at Carvana.
Available now, Carvana's automated system checks vehicle eligibility and applies the Clean Vehicle Tax Credit to the purchase at checkout for eligible customers who elect to transfer their credit to Carvana. Rather than waiting for a lower tax bill next year, customers can now seamlessly access up-front savings of up to $4,000 on the price of the vehicle. These savings also automatically flow through to eligible customers’ financing terms.
"The detailed vehicle eligibility checks we’re running behind the scenes help customers shop with confidence while the integrated tax credit savings help customers take advantage of more affordable entry points to the growing EV category,” Gill continued.
Carvana has sold electric vehicles since 2013, its first year in operation. Since then, the Company’s sales of EVs and PHEVs have grown significantly as a broader range of vehicles has made its way into the used fleet and into Carvana’s inventory. The company continues to expand its selection of EVs and PHEVs to satisfy customer demand at all price points.
