Plug-in Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle Grant

The Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAV) grant is available into financial year 2025/26 with an increased price cap of £50,000. Grant rates remain the same at up to £2,500 for an eligible vehicle. The price cap increase will bring more vehicles into scope, widening customer choice and removing barriers for disabled passengers by ensuring they can get around more easily and with peace of mind. The plug-in wheelchair accessible vehicle grant (PiWG) can only be claimed by new WAVs at first registration. Preregistration conversions are eligible to apply for the grant scheme. Post-registration conversions are not eligible for the grant. Some wheelchair accessible vehicles can be sold at a 35% discount up to a maximum of £2,500, and the seller will include the discount in the purchase price.
