To jumpstart EV adoption, the government’s launching a bold scrappage scheme this July: owners of petrol or diesel cars over 13 years old can get €5,000 to scrap their old ride and another €3,500 toward a new EV, capped at €50,000. Targeting rural areas with 65% of the €10 million budget, the plan aims to close the EV adoption gap and dodge EU fines, while making monthly payments as low as €200—just enough to bring more drivers into the electric fold.
