Toyota and Lexus Hybrids Into Phased Out Tax Credits

Feb 08, 2007

Washington (IRS) — After reviewing the fourth quarter sales of Toyota Motor Sales USA Inc. the Internal Revenue Service announced that purchasers Toyota and Lexus vehicles may continue to claim the Alternative Motor Vehicle Credit. Given the number of vehicles sold, the phase out period for Toyota vehicles began on October 1, 2006.



Toyota sold 67,857 qualifying vehicles to retail dealers in the quarter ending December 31, 2006. This brings the cumulative sales of qualified Toyota hybrid vehicles sold from the period of Jan. 1, 2006, through Dec. 31, 2006, to 212,073.

Taxpayers may claim the full amount of the credit up to the end of the first calendar quarter after the quarter in which the manufacturer records its sale of the 60,000th qualified vehicle. For the second and third calendar quarters after the quarter in which the 60,000th vehicle is sold, taxpayers may claim 50 percent of the credit. For the fourth and fifth calendar quarters, taxpayers may claim 25 percent of the credit. No credit is allowed after the fifth quarter. The sale of Toyota’s 60,000th qualified vehicle occurred in the quarter ending September 30, 2006.
