The California E-bike Incentive Project, funded by the California Air Resources Board (CARB) and originally launched in December, 2024, will open applications for a second round on Tuesday, April 29, 2025 to provide eligible Californians up to $2,000 towards the purchase of a new e-bike. Up to 1,000 applications will be approved.

The California E-bike Incentive Project will continue to collaborate with over 20 community-based organizations to conduct outreach and provide application assistance. E-Bike Incentive vouchers will be granted to California residents who are 18 years or older that meet the defined income requirements.

“The unprecedented interest in the vouchers shows there is a big need and strong interest in electric bikes in California,” said Dr. Steven Cliff, CARB Executive Officer. “The growth of this technology is an important part of our efforts to make zero-emission transportation options available to all Californians.”
