Greece reduces electric vehicle purchase subsidy to €3,000

The Greek Ministry of Infrastructure and Transport has reduced the subsidy for electric vehicle purchases to €3,000, a significant decrease from the previous €9,000. This change aims to support more buyers and promote more affordable electric vehicles. The "Kinoumai Ilektrika 3" program will continue, with applications opening soon. Additional bonuses are available, including €1,500 for scrapping an old car, and up to €2,000 for large families. Businesses and island residents also receive increased subsidies. The program also covers electric motorcycles, bicycles, and wheelchairs. The ministry hopes the changes will encourage wider adoption of electric vehicles and prevent the program's budget from being quickly exhausted.
