How it works
Price after subsidies = car price − maker discount − national subsidy − local subsidy − conversion bonus. The 2026 conversion bonus is 1,000,000 won from the national budget plus a local top-up (Seoul: 300,000 won) for individuals who scrap or sell a combustion car held for at least 3 years (not to family members) and buy an EV. National subsidies for passenger cars are paid in full below 53 million won, at 50% from 53 to under 85 million won, and not at all from 85 million won — the ministry applies this to the model’s base price, so your listed model subsidy already reflects it. Acquisition tax is not included (see the car acquisition tax calculator).

FAQ
Where do I find the exact subsidy for my model?
The official EV portal (ev.or.kr) lists the national subsidy for each model and the local subsidy for each city and county. Enter those two numbers here.
Can the subsidy run out?
Yes. Local budgets are first come, first served and can run out during the year, so check the remaining budget for your area before you sign.
