Electric Vehicle Exchange Program


Save Thousands on an Electric Vehicle at 3111 South College Avenue

If you live in Fort Collins, Windsor, Windsor, Loveland, Wellington, or anywhere in Northern Colorado, you may qualify for significant savings through the Colorado Electric Vehicle (EV) Exchange Program.

At 3111 South College Avenue in Fort Collins, we’re here to help you take advantage of every available incentive and make upgrading to an electric vehicle simple and affordable.

What Is the Colorado EV Exchange Program?

The Colorado EV Exchange Program is a state incentive designed to help residents trade in older, higher-emission vehicles and replace them with cleaner electric vehicles.

If you have an older gas-powered vehicle, you may be eligible for additional state incentives when purchasing or leasing a qualifying electric vehicle (EV).

The Vehicle Exchange Colorado (VXC) program offers income-qualified Colorado residents rebates of up to $9,000 for new and $6,000 for used electric vehicles (EVs) when replacing a high-emitting, older vehicle. Designed for those with incomes below 80% of their area median income, the program covers upfront costs at authorized dealerships, aiming to make EVs accessible while improving air quality.

Key Details for the VXC Program (2026):

  • Rebate Amounts: $9,000 for a new EV or $6,000 for a used EV.
  • Requirements: Must be a Colorado resident (18+), have a household income <80% of Area Median Income (AMI), and trade in a gasoline/diesel vehicle that is at least 12 years old or has failed an emissions test.
  • Process: Applicants must be pre-qualified, then work with an authorized dealer to apply the rebate at the time of purchase or lease.
  • Additional Savings: These rebates can often be combined with other state or federal incentives.

Eligible Vehicles & Requirements:

  • Trade-in Vehicle: Must be in working order and either 2011 or older OR have failed a Colorado emissions test.
  • Replacement Vehicle: Must be a new or used electric vehicle (EV) or plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV).

The program focuses on reducing upfront costs for low-to-moderate income households to increase equity in EV adoption.

Because requirements can change, we recommend contacting our team for the most up-to-date information. If you’re in Fort Collins, Windsor, Windsor, Timnath, Severance, Loveland, or Longmont, our EV specialists can walk you through the process step by step.
