A new €15 million scheme for the purchase of new electric vehicles was launched by Minister for Transport, Infrastructure and Capital Projects Aaron Farrugia and Parliamentary Secretary for European Funds Chris Bonett.

This scheme for the purchase of new electric vehicles, including new motorcycles, for private individuals, non-government organisations, businesses and private companies is funded by the Recovery and Resilience Plan (RRP).

It was explained that this grant scheme will support the purchase of new electric vehicles in EU Category L, M and N, consisting of passenger cars, vans, goods-carrying vehicles, minibuses, coaches, quadricycles, motorcycles, and pedelecs, with the aim of reducing the number of older conventional motor vehicles from the road.

Applicants who have purchased their vehicle from the 1st of January 2023 onwards and who meet the scheme’s criteria, are eligible for this scheme.
