I have done searches but couldn't find anything on the amount of tax credit in CO for a 2012 M-iEV. Has anyone had experience with applying for the Tax Credit in Colorado?

Yeah, the "FYI Income 67" tax bulletin lists only 'common' electric vehicles. :x

But the method is straightforward, though open to interpretation since there is no gasoline version of the i for us to compare.
Take a Lancer, starting at $15,995 versus an iMiEV, starting at an after-Fed $21,625, for a premium of $5630. The CO tax credit would be 75% of that, or $4222.50.
For a used i that hasn't previously received a CO credit, they require you to compare the car's % depreciation to the credit when new. So, if our $21,995 one year old i was only worth $15,850, that's 28% depreciated, and a tax credit of $3040.20 for a used car. I'm pretty sure that the credit does not carry over if you owe less than the credit, but it is refundable. :eek:
