The ABC Act and hybrid cars

The ABC's of Hybrid Vehicles

On the first of this month, Senator Charles Grassley, introduced the America's Business Choice (ABC) Act to provide the same tax benefits to hybrid cars that large SUVs receive.

"The tax code shouldn't favor SUVs over alternative energy cars for business owners," Grassley said. "Some business owners will want to use SUVs and some will want to use hybrid cars. The choice should be theirs and the tax code should be consistent. The purchase of either kind of vehicle will help business growth, especially for small businesses, which create most of the nation's jobs."

For small business owners, the Grassley Bill could make the purchase of all hybrid vehicles far more cost effective than buying their conventional counterparts. Such an incentive could significantly and immediately increase the demand for hybrids. Consequently, America could more quickly and seriously start addressing American dependence on foreign oil, while cleaning the environment.
