New Jersey would give a sales tax break on some energy-efficient
vehicles and appliances under a bill up for discussion Monday in a
state Senate committee.
The bill (S-756) would lift state sales tax on the first $40,000 of the
price of a vehicle that gets 35 miles per gallon or more – except for
diesel vehicles – and sales tax on major appliances with the Energy
Star seal. It would expire in two years.
