Starting on Jan 1st , 2017, you get a $5,000 tax credit for purchasing a new Prius Prime. Prior to 2017, it was a calculation of purchase price × battery size ÷ 100 but that's all changed. If you finance the purchase , you can opt to have the finance copy take the $5k off the initial price and finance the rest , then the finance company gets the credit from the State. If you bought the Prime outright, you have to wait until tax time next year. Posted via the PriusChat mobile app.
I second the additional $5000 Colorado tax credit. It's a $5000 flat credit no matter what battery size it is. Don't confuse this with the $4500 federal tax credit. Here's the link: https://www.colorado.gov/pacific/sites/default/files/Income69.pdf
