Italy Updates Automotive Fund: No New Car Incentives, Focus on Commercial Vehicles & 2030 Goals

The Italian government is updating its Automotive Fund through a prime Ministerial Decree extending to 2030, but will not be using these resources for a new round of incentives for purchasing new passenger cars. Rather, the focus will be on supporting the renewal of the national vehicle fleet, with a specific bonus planned for the purchase of new light commercial vehicles.

This decision was communicated by the Ministry, which shared details of the decree but did not specify a timeframe for when the changes will take effect. https://www.vaielettrico.it/incentivi-auto-2024-nessun-nuovo-piano-incentivi-per-le-auto-e-bonus-per-veicoli-commerciali/

The update comes amidst delays in other incentive programs, such as those for 2026 electric quadricycles, which were previously anticipated to introduce new features. Given the content of the new decree,a revision of the quadricycle incentive plans is now expected,as the available funding may be adjusted. https://www.vaielettrico.it/incentivi-auto-2024-nessun-nuovo-piano-incentivi-per-le-auto-e-bonus-per-veicoli-commerciali/

The Automotive Fund aims to modernize ItalyS vehicle fleet and support the transition to cleaner transportation, with a long-term vision extending to 2030. Further details regarding the specific amount of the commercial vehicle bonus and the implementation timeline are still pending.
