What is the Electric Vehicle Affordability Program (EVAP)?

Canada's Electric Vehicle Affordability Program (EVAP) is a federal incentive that replaced the previous iZEV program, which ran out of funding in March 2025. Launched in February 2026, EVAP offers a discount of up to $2,500 on qualifying plug-in hybrid vehicles and up to $5,000 on fully electric vehicles. The incentive is applied directly at the dealership at the time of purchase or lease, so you don't need to wait for a cheque or apply separately.

How Much Can You Save with the 2026 Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV with EVAP?

The amount you receive depends on your lease term or whether you're purchasing outright. Here's how it breaks down for the 2026 and 2025 Outlander PHEV:

Purchase or Lease Term

2026 Outlander PHEV

2025 Outlander PHEV

Purchase or 48-Month Lease

$2,500

$2,500

36-Month Lease

$1,875

$1,875

24-Month Lease

$1,250

$1,250

12-Month Lease

$625

$625

For maximum savings, purchasing or leasing for 48 months gets you the full $2,500 off. And since only individuals can receive one EVAP payment over the five-year life of the program, it pays to use it on the right vehicle at the right time.

What Counts Toward the $50,000 Final Transaction Value?

Under EVAP rules, the final transaction value includes the base price of the trim, any optional features or packages added at delivery, accessories included at delivery, and any dealership or administrative fees.

It does not include taxes, freight, and PDI charges, winter tires, extended warranties, or government fees. In BC, freight and PDI are typically listed separately, so the 2026 Outlander PHEV ES S-AWC at $49,998 falls comfortably under the threshold before those charges are added. Always confirm eligibility with our team at the time of purchase, as prices and program guidelines can change.
