WASHINGTON (Reuters) -Senate Republicans on Monday proposed a tax and budget bill that would end the $7,500 tax credit on new electric vehicles 180 days after the measure is signed into law, and it would end a $4,000 used-vehicle EV tax credit 90 days after the bill's approval.

The House of Representatives version would allow the $7,500 new-EV tax credit to continue through the end of 2025, and through the end of 2026 for automakers that have not yet sold 200,000 EVs. The Republican Senate Finance Committee bill would exempt interest paid on auto loans from taxes for new cars made in the United States.
