As expected, this Sunday, December 1, the decree implementing the new year of aid for the purchase of new electric vehicles was published in the Official Gazette. It comes into effect this Monday the 2nd.
he confirms a major downward revision of the purchase bonus scale, the amount of which depends on the tax rate of each household.
Specifically, households will be able to receive:
- Bonus of 4,000 euros up to 16,300 euros of income per share (deciles 1 to 5),
- 3,000 euros up to 26,200 euros per share (deciles 6 to 8), and
- 2,000 euros above 26,200 euros per share (deciles 9 and 10), that is, the majority of electric car buyers.
The old scale will continue to apply to orders placed before the publication of the decree, as long as the vehicles are delivered before February 14, the decree specifies.
In 2024, individuals could benefit from aid of at least 4,000 euros (without income conditions) and up to 7,000 euros in ecological bonus.
End of conversion bonus
Furthermore, the Government has indicated that the allocation dedicated to this ecological bond would be “strictly limited” to 700 million euros by 2025. What will happen once this amount is reached? Subsidies that could be reduced further, or even suspended.
The conversion bonus system has been removed. This system would allow additional assistance for an old car that has been scrapped. On the other hand, the Government intends to maintain aid for light electric utility vehicles.
However, the amount of aid for these professional vehicles is not yet known. It will be financed through energy savings certificates (CEE), which do not depend on the treasury bill.
The modernization bonus is also preserved.
Finally, the social lease will be renewed in 2025 “and will be financed through a specific energy savings certificate program. The precise conditions of the social lease for 2025 will be announced later,” it is explained.
