I searched the forum as best I could to determine the answer to this question, to no avail. Is there a way to know which, if any, or both of the Chevrolet Incremental CCR Programs apply when the calculator lists both as options when searching by VIN? I was close, $2k away, to having my offer accepted on a Silverado, but the dealer insisted that unit did not qualify, and as a matter of fact, they had no loaners that qualified, as that program was on EVs only and ended last month. Not sure what to believe, but would love to know if there’s a foolproof way to know if and which rebate applies ahead of time.
What makes it even more confusing is that both the $2000 and $500 incentives have the same program # (26-40BE-007), and I can find no mention of this on any vehicle on Chevy’s main website.
Courtesy vehicle rebates are a bit confusing with Chevy. A loaner car has to be in service for a minimum amount of days and or accrue a minimum amount of miles. When I was hunting for a Silverado EV loaner the units were so aged that the criteria was not an issue. On the other hand, working in Equinox loaner deals was tricky because many units didn’t meet those minimums, or in 1 case a GSM told me that the loaner they had was still in active service and therefore did not qualify for the rebate.
As for the rebate being active or not, I usually can see a CCR rebate on the Chevy shopping website, since they do note units that are loaners. Looking briefly at Silverados I am not seeing a rebate this month so it’s possible the Ratefindr data is wrong or it applies only to certain units like corporate demonstration vehicles. In any case I don’t think the dealer has an incentive to withhold the rebate from you.
I appreciate you taking the time to respond and for sharing your personal experience. A “bit confusing”: is certainly an accurate description in this case.
