The new car incentives could change like this

How should we consider the car incentives 2024? Success or failure? According to Minister Adolfo Urso, who spoke today at the automotive tablethe incentive plan “did not correspond to the increase that we expected, that we had agreed, in production in Italy”.

Not a complete failure then, but an objective not achieved. And now? Ready to change the interventions starting next year. Here’s how.

Not just consumption

According to what has been leaked and published by the agencies, in fact, the Minister Urso he would have recalled the 5 objectives that the Government had set itself with the car incentives 2024:

  • support the energy transition,
  • renew the circulating car fleet,
  • support individuals in particular,
  • support the less well-off groups
  • increase production volumes of Italian factories

Of the five objectives, four have been achieved. The Minister of Made in Italy has reeled off supporting numbers, such as the speed with which the funds for electric cars have run out. Again according to rumors, ‘83% of purchases made using the 2024 car incentives were contextual to the scrapping of an old model, 43% of which were between Euro 0 and Euro 3.

As for support for individuals, these accounted for 77% of bookings and 25% involved people with an ISEE lower than 30,000 euros, the limit below which the ecobonus amount increases.

What was missing was the aspect of the production in Italyon which Minister Urso has repeatedly emphasized. To overcome the problem, the Government is therefore thinking, as anticipated months ago, of diverting part of the resources to production. Perhaps to attract new manufacturers to Italy.

A reorganization of car incentives that will also lead to a multi-year planning of the resources to be deployed, thus finally giving a long-term look. According to the previews, the automotive fund will have 750 million euros available in 2025 while from 2026 to 2030 there will be one billion per year.

The money, as specified by Urso, will be “to support the less well-off classes and the Italian component industry, so that the incentives will only go to the machines that have Italian and European components“. A philosophy anticipated months ago and which follows what the French Government has done.
