For the first time in nearly three years, government incentives for electric and plug-in hybrid cars have run out of funds. Now, while the contributions to the purchase of “simple” hybrid cars and many petrol and diesel models (144 million euros remain, destined to finish prematurely as in the previous rounds), the focus shifts to what the choices of the Draghi government on the possible continuation of a measure introduced at the end of 2018 by Conte 1 for a three-year trial period, which would end on 31 December next.

The wording of the rule does not clarify whether the extra bonus can continue to be paid even after the main bonus has been used up. But the fact that Mise has blocked the booking platform also for the extra-bonus indicates that its interpretation is the restrictive one.
