The Dealership Outreach team engages with sales staff and managers to ensure they have the most up-to-date EV incentive information and resources available to provide electric vehicle (EV) car shoppers a comprehensive and positive buying experience.

Dealership outreach engagement encompasses the following elements.

  • In-person visits – Discuss and provide dealership sales staff up-to-date information about EV incentives and local programs so they can better assist their customers
  • In-person information sessions – Inform dealership staff about rebate basics, income eligibility, application processes, current funding status, rollback and unwind policies and other program specifics
  • Materials distributed – Provide materials that cover EV technology, charging basics, carpool lane access, income considerations and other aspects of EVs in general.
  • Total resources – A count of all outreach completed by the CVRP team including in person visits, information sessions, conference calls, e-mails, and materials distributed

The team conducts in-person visits and training sessions and provides program resources and other relevant materials for dealership staff. Most materials are also downloadable from the online CVRP Dealers Hub.
