Are EV grants still available for Kilkenny buyers in 2026?

2026 is the final year of Ireland's EV support stack, but it applies to NEW battery-electric cars only: the €3,500 SEAI purchase grant does not apply to used EVs. New-BEV buyers also get VRT relief (a €5,000 ceiling on paper, but capped at the VRT actually due — 7% of the car's value — so about €2,800 at best, and nothing above €50,000 OMSP), expiring 31 December 2026. The €300 SEAI home charger grant is the one that DOES apply whether your EV is new or used.
