Chrysler owners in the Signal Hill area driving a hybrid vehicle may qualify for a federal tax credit of up to $7,500. Glenn E. Thomas wants to ensure our auto shoppers are making the most of their hybrid vehicles so we have your guide to understanding the federal tax credit.
Eligible Chrysler Hybrid Vehicle
2022 and 2023 Chrysler Pacifica Plug-in Hybrid minivans whose MSRP is $80,000 or less are eligible for the tax credit.
What is a Plug-in Hybrid Vehicle?
Plug-in hybrid vehicles give you the best of both worlds between hybrid and electric vehicles. These models utilize a gasoline engine and large rechargeable batteries to help drivers reach impressive ranges. As the name suggests, these vehicles are able to be charged to help get even more from your battery and then will switch to the gasoline engine when charge is running low.
What are the Federal Tax Credit Requirements?
In order to qualify for the tax credit, your vehicle must meet the following parameters:
- Made from a qualifying manufacturer (Chrysler is a qualified brand)
- Battery capacity must be at least 7 kilowatt hours
- The vehicle must have a gross weight of less than 14,000 pounds
- Undergo final assembly in North America

- $300,000 for married couples filing jointly
- $225,000 for heads of households
