According to information Echoesthe ecological bonus will drop by several thousand euros. This new version of the aid could above all be applicable immediately upon publication of the decree.
Purchasing assistance for an electric car seems to be shrinking. While the conversion bonus will disappear in 2025, the bonus will be severely cut, according to information Echoes. Amounting 5,000 euros this year and even 7,000 euros for the most modest households (reference tax income less than 15,400 euros), according to the economic daily it will increase to 4,000 euros maximum.
Taxpayers whose income is between the 6th and 8th deciles will only receive 3,000 euros, those in the last two deciles, only 2,000 euros.
Utilities and quadricycles excluded
Beyond this reduction, certain vehicles will no longer be eligible, such as quadricycles, two-wheelers or even utility vehicles. Bad news as the debate on the greening of fleets has returned to the forefront in recent weeks. In addition, vehicles purchased by fleets become used vehicles for individuals a few years later, explains a professional who fears a drop in the number of used electric cars in the years to come.
Latest novelty of this 2025 bonus, as specified by the specialized media autoactu: from a counter logic, the system will move to that of an envelope. Basically, first come, first served. Once the envelope allocated in the budget is exhausted, buyers will no longer benefit from the bonus. However, as we clarified a few days ago, the overall envelope for the bonus and social leasing will only be 700 million euros. Against 1.5 billion euros allocated to aid for electric cars this year.
The publication of the decree concerning the bonus is expected in the coming days, and again according to Les Echos, the new amounts could be applicable immediately. At the end of October, 238,269 electric vehicles were registered in France, or around 8,000 vehicles more than last year over the same period. Professionals in the sector are particularly worried, because to meet emissions standards next year, one in five registered cars will have to be electric. They represent only 17% of sales over the first 10 months of 2024.
