Cars in Canada

Private car scrappage, clean air support, retirement incentives and replacement grants.

Car support usually means a city clean air grant, a retirement incentive, or a rebate linked to deregistration. Geography is the first thing to verify.

Use this hub to compare active programmes, then open each scheme page for official sources, documents and change logs.

Verification checklist

Before acting on any Cars page, check:

  • Is the scheme still active?
  • Does your home, work or licence area fall inside the scheme geography?
  • Is the vehicle non-compliant or otherwise eligible?
  • Do you need to own the vehicle for a minimum period?
  • Must you apply before you replace or scrap the vehicle?

Schemes

Available programmes and notes.

Each entry is editorially checked and points to official sources, so the hub stays fast to scan and easy to trust.
