The Driving Clean Assistance Program is dedicated to POWER YOUR FUTURE with a new clean-air vehicle.

April is Drive Clean Electric Month, a time to celebrate the growing movement toward cleaner transportation across California. Electric vehicles are helping drivers reduce air pollution, lower fuel costs, and enjoy a smoother driving experience. Through the Driving Clean Assistance Program (DCAP), income-qualified Californians can access financial assistance and support to replace older vehicles and transition to cleaner transportation.

As more communities make the switch to cleaner vehicles, the benefits extend beyond individual drivers — helping improve air quality, reduce greenhouse gas emissions, and create healthier neighborhoods for everyone.
