(a) The comptroller and the commission shall develop a purchase or lease incentive program for new light-duty motor vehicles and shall adopt rules necessary to implement the program.
(b) The program shall authorize statewide incentives for the purchase or lease, according to the schedule provided by Section 386.153, of new light-duty motor vehicles that are certified by the United States Environmental Protection Agency to meet an emissions standard that is at least as stringent as those provided by Section 386.153 for a purchaser or lessee who agrees to register the vehicle in this state and to operate the vehicle in this state for not less than 75 percent of the vehicle's annual mileage.
(c) Only one incentive will be provided for each new light-duty motor vehicle. The incentive shall be provided to the lessee and not to the purchaser if the motor vehicle is purchased for the purpose of leasing the vehicle to another person.
