Overview
- The government plans to restart purchase and leasing incentives for new electric cars and plug-in hybrids in 2026, pending EU Commission approval.
- Grants begin at €3,000 and can rise to €5,000 via child-related top-ups and an extra €1,000 for households under €3,000 net per month.
- Eligibility targets private households with taxable income up to €80,000, with the cap increasing by €5,000 per child, and recipients must keep the vehicle for a set period.
- The Environment Ministry is developing proposals to include used EVs, requiring seller pass-through of subsidies and proof that the purchase would not have happened without the aid; income thresholds may differ.
- Parliament extended the EV road-tax exemption for up to ten years, capped at end-2035 for vehicles first registered by the end of 2030.
