WASHINGTON — After reviewing the fourth quarter 2007 sales of American Honda Motor Company, Inc., the Internal Revenue Service announced that purchasers of qualifying Honda vehicles may continue to claim the Alternative Motor Vehicle Credit. Given the number of vehicles sold, the phase out period for Honda vehicles began on Jan. 1, 2008.

Honda sold 8,017 qualifying vehicles to retail dealers in the quarter ending Dec. 31, 2007. This brings the cumulative sales of qualified Honda hybrid vehicles sold from the period of Jan. 1, 2006, to Dec. 31, 2007, to 73,108. 

Taxpayers may claim the full amount of the credit up to the end of the first calendar quarter after the quarter in which the manufacturer records its sale of the 60,000th qualified vehicle. For the second and third calendar quarters after the quarter in which the 60,000th vehicle is sold, taxpayers may claim 50 percent of the credit. For the fourth and fifth calendar quarters, taxpayers may claim 25 percent of the credit. No credit is allowed after the fifth quarter.
