加州公用事业委员会CPUC宣布网约车电动车激励RIDE 11月2日开放申请 购新车最高补20,300美元
旧金山——加州公用事业委员会（CPUC）10月19日宣布，网约车电动车激励计划「RIDE」（Rideshare Incentives for Driving Electric）将于11月2日开放申请。这项全州计划向符合条件的网约车司机提供购车与充电补助，帮助其换购零排放车辆。
补助标准：为 HopSkipDrive、Lyft、Uber 等交通网络公司开车的中低收入、高单量司机，购买或租赁新的零排放车辆最高可获20,300美元，购买或租赁二手零排放车辆最高可获14,200美元，合资格车辆包括符合要求的纯电动与氢燃料电池车；拿到购车补助的司机自动获得每年最高1,170美元的充电补助，在持续符合条件并完成年度续期的情况下最长可领四年。申请资格包括：家庭收入不超过联邦贫困线的400%，且过去12个月内在各网约车平台累计完成至少4,500单载客行程。办理方式上，预先通过资格审核的司机可在参与计划的经销商处购车或租车时直接抵扣补助金额；也可选择购车后申请，但官方提示，先买车再审核的司机有最终被认定不符合资格、拿不到补助的风险。司机还可同时叠加申请地方、公用事业公司等其他电动车激励。申请与资格查询自11月2日起在 RIDECA.org 进行。
CPUC 委员 Christine Harada 表示：「网约车司机靠车辆谋生，换电动车的成本是一大门槛。RIDE 帮助符合条件的司机负担得起电动车并支付充电费用，让清洁交通对司机更可负担，也帮助改善所有人的空气质量。」RIDE 的资金来自 Clean Miles Standard 计划下由网约车乘客支付、交通网络公司代收的每单监管费；按该标准，交通网络公司须提高零排放车辆行驶里程的占比，以减少网约车行程的温室气体排放。计划由非营利机构 Center for Sustainable Energy 为 CPUC 管理，负责申请处理、补助发放与司机支持。
CPUC Says RIDE Rideshare EV Incentives Open for Applications Nov. 2; Up to $20,300 Toward a New Vehicle
SAN FRANCISCO — The California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) announced on October 19 that applications for RIDE (Rideshare Incentives for Driving Electric) will open on November 2, 2026. The statewide program provides financial assistance to eligible rideshare drivers to help make the transition to zero-emission vehicles more affordable.
Eligible low- and moderate-income, high-volume drivers for transportation network companies such as HopSkipDrive, Lyft and Uber may receive up to $20,300 toward purchasing or leasing a new zero-emission vehicle, or up to $14,200 toward a used one; qualifying vehicles include new and used battery-electric and hydrogen fuel-cell vehicles that meet program requirements. Drivers who receive a vehicle incentive automatically qualify for up to $1,170 annually to help offset charging costs, for up to four years if they maintain eligibility and complete annual renewal. Eligibility requires household income at or below 400 percent of the federal poverty level and at least 4,500 passenger trips across rideshare platforms within the past 12 months. Drivers who pre-qualify can have the incentive applied directly at a participating dealership; a post-purchase option exists, though the CPUC notes drivers who buy before qualifying risk being found ineligible. Drivers may also stack local, utility and other EV incentives, and can apply and check eligibility at RIDECA.org starting November 2.
'Rideshare drivers depend on their vehicles to earn a living, and the cost of going electric can be a major hurdle,' said Commissioner Christine Harada. 'RIDE helps eligible drivers afford an electric vehicle and pay for charging, making cleaner transportation more affordable for drivers and helping improve air quality for everyone.' RIDE is funded through a per-trip regulatory fee paid by rideshare customers and collected by transportation network companies under the Clean Miles Standard program, under which the companies must increase the share of miles traveled in zero-emission vehicles. The nonprofit Center for Sustainable Energy administers RIDE for the CPUC, handling applications, incentive payments and driver support.
