Canada's Ecoauto Rebate Program

As part of Canada's New Government's plan to protect the environment, the ecoAUTO Rebate Program encourages Canadians to buy or lease fuel-efficient vehicles.

How? It offers rebates from $1000 to $2000, to people who buy or enter a long-term lease (12 months or more) for a fuel-efficient vehicle, as of March 20, 2007.

The two-year ecoAUTO Rebate Program offers performance-based rebates on new light duty vehicles.

What vehicles get rebates?

The list of eligible vehicles is established by Transport Canada and includes:

New cars with a combined fuel consumption of 6.5 L/100km or less;

New sport utility vehicles and other light duty vehicles with a combined fuel consumption of 8.3 L/100km or less; and new flexible-fuel vehicles with a combined E85 fuel consumption rating of 13.0 L/100km or less.

A number of Canadian provinces also offer incentive programs on advanced technology and fuel-efficient vehicles, and drivers could benefit from both programs.

For whatever reason there are no Smart cars listed for 2007?

2006 MODEL YEAR ecoAUTO ELIGIBILITY
  • Mercedes-Benz Smart 0.8 L, 3 cylinder $2000
Fortwo CDI Coupe 6-speed Manual
(Diesel) CFCR = 4.2 L/100 km
  • Mercedes-Benz Smart 0.8 L, 3 cylinder $2000
Fortwo CDI Cabriolet 6-speed Manual
(Diesel) CFCR = 4.2 L/100 km

That's 'cuz there were no 2007 smarts imported into Canada, just '04-'06 CDIs and now '08 gassers.
