Citroën, which is expanding its range of electrified vehicles, has decided to take action on the matter and advances the subsidies from the MOVES III Plan. You can benefit from this promotion if you meet a requirement and you will get a discount ranging from 2,500 to 7,000 euros.
The transition to electric cars, especially in Spain, is not going as smoothly as expected. In 2023, a total of 113,776 electrified vehicles (pure electric and plug-in hybrids) were sold, representing an accumulated share of 5.56%, a figure still far from the average in Europe, which stood at 21% for the year. past.
And this, despite the fact that the market for electric and plug-in hybrid cars is broader and more varied than ever. Even prices have fallen thanks, in part, to the emergence of Chinese manufacturers with very attractive rates, and to the aid of up to 7,000 euros that can be obtained from the MOVES III Plan.
These aid will be active until July 31, since the funds allocated to this incentive program for the purchase of ecological vehicles and the installation of charging points have not yet been exhausted.
However, sales are not taking off, since many potential buyers do not find the MOVES III Plan subsidy an incentive due to the long waits (more than a year) that buyers face to receive the funds after making the purchase. acquisition of the vehicle, in addition to having to return a portion to the Treasury later.
Citroën advances the aid from the MOVES III Plan in the price of its electric and plug-in hybrid cars if you acquire them through renting
Faced with this situation, Citroën has decided to launch a campaign in which it advances the full money from the MOVES III Plan if you buy one of its electric cars, although to benefit from this campaign you must meet an important requirement.
And Citroën has reserved this promotion for customers who take advantage of the renting. This modality allows you to enjoy a new vehicle with all services included (insurance, maintenance, taxes, MOT, tire change…) in exchange for paying a fixed monthly fee.
Therefore, through this promotion Citroën deducts the aid received directly from the monthly payments, which is up to 7,000 euros for electric cars and up to 4,500 euros for plug-in hybrid cars if an old vehicle is handed over for scrapping. If it is not delivered, the discount is 4,500 euros for electric vehicles and 2,500 euros for plug-in hybrids.
To this we must add that, along with the electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle purchased through renting at Citroën, a free easyWallbox charging station is delivered. This home charger operates at both 2.3 kW from a conventional socket and 7.4 kW with professional installation.
Citroën has activated this promotional campaign for all its electric cars, including the new ë-C3, the ë-C4 and ë-C4 X, the ë-Berlingo and the ë-SpaceTourer. It also affects the range of plug-in hybrid models, which includes the C5 Aircross and the C5
