Headline Target: No sales of vehicles producing CO2 by 2035 (EU phase-out)

Car Manufacturing Country: Dacia, Ford, Igero, Roman Braşov.

Purchase Incentives for Cars: CO2 dependent scrappage scheme, registration tax exemption.

Supplier Regulation Policy: EU emissions performance standard (Tightening CO2 regime)

Infrastructure Incentives: Grant for charging station installations

BEV registrations fell by a third in 2024, compared to the previous year's market. The government reduced its subsidy for EVs and they have failed to maintain or grow since this reduction. 

Despite this there are scrappage schemes available with discounted grants available, alongside tax reductions. The lack of affordable models is seen as a major hurdle to overcome, with only 12 BEV models available to purchase in the country. 

A renewed focus on affordability and infrastructure investment could pave the way for a robust market recovery.
