Plug-in hybrids and electric cars have increased in popularity in France, rising from 2.5% of all vehicles sold in 2019 to 7.5% today. The increase in sales is partly linked to the electric bonuses granted under the country’s recovery plan, dubbed France Relance. EURACTIV France reports.
“There is a greening of the car fleet that is much stronger than anticipated,” the economy and finance ministry told the third France Relance national monitoring committee Monday (19 July).
“The electric bonus has tripled the market share of electric vehicles, which has risen to more than 7% of registrations,” it added.
As part of the post-COVID economic recovery plan, the government has set up a scheme to support the purchase of less polluting vehicles.
