Overview
- Volkswagen has renewed its electric-vehicle purchase incentive until September 30, 2025, marking a fourth consecutive three-month extension.
- Rebate levels vary by model and trim, ranging from €3,500 on ID.3 variants to €6,000 on top-spec ID.4, ID.5 and ID.7 versions.
- The in-house incentive replaced Germany’s federal EV subsidy after December 2023 and has helped ID models dominate the country’s top-10 EV sales chart.
- VW says the discounts boost utilization at its Emden and Zwickau plants and bring its fleet closer to EU CO₂ emission targets while maintaining ID-series profitability.
- Decisions on extending incentives into the fourth quarter of 2025 will depend on upcoming registration figures and overall fleet-consumption data.
