It depends on whether you wish to receive the rebate(s) at the time of purchase or lease. If you wish to qualify for the additional MOR-EV+ rebate adder or intend to purchase a used vehicle and have the MOR-EV Used rebate applied by the dealer at the point-of-sale, your prequalification application for one or both of these rebate offerings must be approved before purchasing or leasing the vehicle. Opting to purchase or lease your vehicle before your prequalification application is approved means foregoing the option to receive the rebate(s) at the dealership.

If you don't have an approved prequalification application at the time of your vehicle purchase or lease, the dealership can offer you the MOR-EV Standard rebate on a new vehicle. However, to qualify for the additional MOR-EV+ rebate and/or the MOR-EV Used rebate at the dealership, you must first obtain an approved prequalification application. Without prequalification, the dealership won't be able to provide you a rebate on the day of purchase or lease. In this case, you will need to apply for the rebate after your purchase/lease.
