Hi tiapayne, thanks for posting an event question.
For leased vehicle, the eligible EV rebate belongs to the dealer (lessor). So any saving you receive in 2023 would be in the form of a rebate or reduced lease price from the dealer.
Starting 1/1/2024, for purchased EV, the federal EV tax credit will shift to a dealership rebate.

Hope this clarifies. Thank you.
The dealership may be reducing the purchase price of the vehicle to you for the EV credit but that does not mean you can claim the credit on your tax return.
When you lease the vehicle you are not the owner of the vehicle so you cannot claim the EV credit on your tax return. The lessor is the owner, not you.
