Get ready for an electric future.

The future of transport will be electric and with EV-ready workshops all over the country, we’re excited to get there.

The electric revolution is here and with New Zealand’s electricity generation being over 80% renewable, switching to an EV is not only becoming an environmental choice, but also an astute financial decision that can save you costs in maintenance and fuel.

Clean Car Discount

The Clean Car Discount in NZ aims to reduce the CO2 emissions of light vehicles across the New Zealand fleet. Armstrong’s are proud to offer a wide range of new 100% Electric (EV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric (PHEV) and Hybrid Vehicles (HEV) to help achieve this goal.

Fully Electric Vehicle (BEV)

A Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) is 100% electric – it draws power from a battery which can be recharged by plugging it into mains power. This is seen as the environmental gold standard of EV options. A fully electric vehicle also has far fewer moving parts than a petrol or diesel engine, which means less maintenance and overall lower operating costs.

Reduced maintenance
100% Electric = no petrol costs

Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV)

A Plug-in Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) uses a combination of a petrol-powered engine and an electric motor with a battery that can be plugged into mains power to be charged. PHEV’s typically allow for a small range of EV only driving (approximately 20km-90km per charge*) or can be used as a highly efficient hybrid combination for significantly reduced fuel consumption.

Plug-in at home or on the road

Hybrid Electric Vehicle (HEV)

A hybrid vehicle uses a combination of a petrol-powered engine and an electric motor with a battery that is recharged via the petrol engine or energy captured from braking. A hybrid does not need to be plugged in and offers significant fuel saving costs over its traditional counterpart.

Clean Car Discount FAQs

  • Which vehicles does the rebate apply to?

    The Clean Car Discount applies to zero and low emission vehicles registered in New Zealand after 1 April 2022, if their emissions are below 146 CO2 grams per kilometre.

    Fully Electric (EV), Plug-in Hybrid Electric (PHEV), Full Hybrid (HEV) and certain light petrol/diesel vehicles may be eligible for the rebate. The lower the CO2 emission value the greater the rebate. Low emission vehicles may be eligible for a rebate based on their emissions if they are below 146 CO2 grams per kilometre. See rightcar.govt.nz to learn if your vehicle is eligible.

    The vehicle must cost no more than $80,000 including GST and on-road costs and must have a minimum 3-star safety rating. Any vehicles costing over $80,000 inc GST and ORC and/or without a 3 star safety rating or higher are excluded from the rebate.

  • How much is the rebate?

    New EV: $8,625
    Used import: $3,450.00

    New PHEV: $5,750
    Used import: $2,300.00

    New Hybrid: $2,387.24
    Used import: $954.90

    New low emission Petrol: up to $2,438.79
    Used import: up to $975.52

    Fees and rebates are indicative only.

  • How does the rebate work?

    Once you’ve found the car you wish to buy, check that the rebate will apply (ie, that the vehicle comes within the $80,000 inc GST and ORC threshold and then purchase the vehicle. You then apply online to Waka Kotahi (NZ Transport Agency) for the rebate, providing the sale agreement, numberplate details and your bank account. Once approved the rebate is paid directly to your bank account.

    It’s important to note that Armstrong’s are not involved in this process and that the rebate amount does not come off the total cost paid to us as a dealer at the time of the sale. You must pay for the vehicle first, with the rebate being a transaction between yourself and Waka Kotahi. See more here.

  • What about high emission vehicles?

    For vehicles registered in New Zealand after April 2022, the Clean Car Discount programme consists of rebates and fees for imported new and used vehicles based on CO2 emission ratings from 2022.

    Buyers purchasing high CO2 emission vehicles will pay a higher price in recognition of the increased environmental and economic costs they are imposing. The higher the CO2 rating the greater the fee.

    Vehicles with moderate emissions will not incur a fee or be eligible for a rebate.
