French president Emmanuel Macron already unveiled new incentives to sway buyers away from Chinese models toward French and European ones, including a new €100 per month leasing scheme for EU-made electric cars, with those details announced today. The French government also announced a big rollout of cash incentives for first-time EV buyers, as long as they bought cars made in the EU.
So I wasn’t sure which one of us misunderstood so I went to read on the French page, and it is indeed a scheme where people with low income can lease the car for 100€ per month, as in that’s what they’ll have to pay per month, rather than a discount on the price of a normal lease.
oy that’s nice then
this is borderline communist for Macron. What happened to him?
He was always like this and has been distributing public money left and right. France’s public spending and taxation as a share of GDP are at all time highs.
It’s just the French left thinks everybody to their right is a spawn of Reagan and Thatcher.
It’s so nationalistic and anti China that it came full circle.
