New $242 million funding assistance program helps low-income Californians get zero-emission vehicles
. The Driving Clean Assistance Program , in partnership with the California Air Resources Board , provides incentives statewide in California to assist low-income and disadvantaged communities in purchasing clean air vehicles. This program aims to combat climate change and predatory lending practices while also offering continuous financial coaching.
“California has ambitious goals of achieving carbon neutrality and a clean air future, but reaching those targets is not possible if Californians are priced out of clean transportation options,” said CARB Executive Officer Dr. Steven Cliff. “The new Driving Clean Assistance Program provides a necessary focus on low-income Californians, bringing zero-emission technology and increased transportation options to underserved communities across the state.
Five of the state’s air districts – San Joaquin Valley, South Coast, Bay Area, Sacramento and San Diego – that administer the individual programs under CC4A report that participation in the program has continued to rise despite higher loan interest rates.Not only do these incentive programs help with the initial costs of a cleaner vehicle, but they will also help families reduce gasoline and maintenance costs.
