Tax affects in CA
Unfortunately, last time I checked there is nothing from CA. The i8 was never fully tested re their existing EV program (emissions basis), therefore not covered. That may have changed more recently. Your dealer should have a communications document detailing all of this, with state contact details.
The federal incentive is a tax credit. It's about $3750 and again is a credit, not a rebate. |

The IRS Tax Credit for 2014 was $3493. Its formula driven based electric motor output, resulting in the i8 getting a lower tax credit than the i3, Tesla, etc that receive the full $7500.

If you buy you get the Federal rebate. If you lease, the lessor gets the rebate. BMW FS passes the rebate on so that it effectively lowers the acquisition cost.

I was under the impression that was only to replace a really old car?
