Verified July 2026
No state rebate and EV taxes on both ends (a $130/yr fee AND a 2.6¢/kWh tax on public charging) — but MidAmerican customers can stack ~$1,000 in utility rebates.
The $7,500 federal new-EV credit and $4,000 used-EV credit ended September 30, 2025 — and the federal home-charger credit (30C) followed on June 30, 2026. If anyone tells you otherwise, they're reading an old script. (Charger installed on or before June 30, 2026? That one's still claimable on that year's return — IRS Form 8911.)
No state-level purchase incentive right now — the money in Iowa, if any, is at the utility level.
$500 rebate on a new EV purchase/lease + $500 residential L2 charger rebate (licensed-electrician install).
The catch: Iowa charges EV owners an extra $130/yr at registration.
Iowa also taxes public (non-residential) charging at 2.6¢/kWh — home charging is exempt. Alliant's old charger rebate is discontinued; don't chase stale listings.
