In EV-crazed Colorado, drivers rush to dealerships before tax credits disappear

The federal EV tax credit is set to expire on Sept. 30, luring a surge of customers to dealerships in Colorado and across the country.

It’s clear why drivers have packed the showroom at Emich Volkswagen in south Denver over the last few months.

The dealership has lured customers like Scott Nelson with super-cheap electric vehicle leases. The real estate broker had wanted an EV for years, but only started taking test drives after realizing local deals wouldn’t last much longer. “It was on our radar, but this definitely sped up the timeline,” Nelson said.
