The Incentives for Medium- Heavy-duty Zero-Emission Vehicles Program (IMHDZEVP) is helping to make it more affordable. The Program aims to support businesses and provincial/territorial and municipal governments operating fleets to adopt clean technology. This program offers eligible applicants a maximum of $1,000,000 to incentivize and make the cost of medium- and heavy-duty zero-emission vehicles more affordable.  ## Funding Details The iMHZEV Program offers point-of-sale incentives for Canadian organizations and businesses  who buy or lease an eligible MHZEV.
