Electric vehicle and charger purchased in 2023 but charger installed by electrician in 2024.

If I purchased an electric vehicle and charger in 2023 but had the charger installed in 2024 can I claim the vehicle credit on my 2023 taxes and the charger install cost on my 2024 taxes?

Yes, that is correct. You need to claim the respective credits on the return for the year when the equipment is placed in service. So, use the 2023 return for the electric vehicle credit and the 2024 return for the charger credit.
