Vicinity Motor Corp. Customers Eligible for U.S. IRS Commercial Clean Vehicle Tax Credit of Up to $40,000 per Vehicle

Tax Credits include up to $7,500 for VMC 1200 and up to $40,000 for Lightning Electric Transit Bus Purchases

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / July 25, 2024 / Vicinity Motor Corp. (NASDAQ:VEV)(TSXV:VMC) ("Vicinity" or the "Company"), a North American supplier of commercial electric vehicles, today announced that its customers can now receive up to $7,500 tax credit toward the purchase of the VMC 1200 Class 3 Electric Truck and up to $40,000 for the Vicinity Lightning electric transit bus.

This opportunity arises after approval from the United States Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") as a "qualified manufacturer" for the Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit. The Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit ("45W tax credit"), as defined in ยง30D(d)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, provides credits for qualifying vehicles purchased by businesses and tax-exempt organizations as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. There is no limit on the number of credits a business can claim. Vicinity will be listed as a Qualified Manufacturer on the IRS Qualified Manufactured index. Additional information on commercial clean vehicle tax credit can be found on IRS.gov.

"The Commercial Clean Vehicle Credit specifically targets vehicles like our VMC 1200 and Vicinity Lightning with incentives to encourage organizations and businesses to electrify their fleets," said Brent Phillips, President of Vicinity Motor Corp. "With the growth of our distribution network targeting commercial and fleet customers in the U.S., this is an additional way to attract attention and lower costs for new buyers who are considering making the transition to EVs for their business."

Ronnie Garcia, Grant & Government Relations Manager of Vicinity Motor Corp, added: "The 45W tax credit from the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 is a significant advantage for our customers, providing substantial financial incentive for adopting our electric Class 3 truck and our Lightning transit bus. This tax credit not only makes our electric vehicles more accessible but also greatly reduces the total cost of ownership, allowing businesses and transit agencies to enjoy the benefits of lower operating costs and maintenance expenses. At Vicinity Motor Corp. we're proud to offer innovative, sustainable transportation solutions that are now more attractive and cost-effective thanks to this historic piece of legislation."
