There are various hybrid rebates and tax breaks available depending upon where you live. U.S. federal and state governments offer a variety of tax incentives and credits to encourage hybrid vehicle ownership. Here's a list of federal tax credits that apply to the purchase of a hybrid vehicle. Cost incentives vary state-by-state, so it's also smart to check your state's hybrid incentives. And give your insurance company a call--many offer discounts to hybrid owners.

Remember to check with your tax advisor to confirm the current active rebates that apply to the hybrid you choose.
