This new CalSEED grant will fund the development of an EV Climate Loan platform. EV Life’s Climate Loan aims to lower the monthly cost of an EV by up to $200/month. The average California driver qualifies for over $10,000 in EV rebates and tax credits, but incentives can take 12 to 18 months to recoup post-purchase.
