FOR A LIMITED TIME, SELCO IS OFFERING CUSTOMERS REBATES ON 100% BATTERY ELECTRIC CARS AND PLUG-IN HYBRIDS
Electric Vehicle Rebate

The rebates include a fixed/flat amount, plus an additional amount for income-qualified households. The rebate amounts are based on whether the vehicle is a BEV (Battery Electric Vehicle) or PHEV (Pug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle) and if it was purchased to own or leased. Please see the table below for rebate amount details.
