California is set to introduce a new rebate program aimed at encouraging first-time buyers to switch to electric vehicles (EVs). The initiative, which is part of the state's ongoing efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, will offer eligible buyers up to $5,000 in rebates to help offset the higher upfront costs of EVs. The move is seen as a significant step in California's push towards a more sustainable transportation sector, with the state aiming to have at least 5 million EVs on the road by 2030. The rebate program is expected to be popular among first-time buyers, who are often more price-sensitive and may be deterred by the higher costs of EVs.
