Boom in requests, only money remains for two wheels
However, the resources of the tender for the purchase of non-polluting motor vehicles and mopeds are still available (here the info). This was announced by the Councilor for the Environment and Climate of the Lombardy Region, Raffaele Cattaneo. “A success beyond expectations – comments Cattaneo – and we didn’t think that resources would run out in such a short time. Evidently the ban has intercepted a real need of citizens “. Over half of the contributions requested are for zero-emission cars. Bookings through sellers / dealers were 3,209: 1,081 for zero-emission cars with more polluting vehicle radiation; 704 reservations for hybrid cars; 606 for zero-emission car with no radiation of a vehicle; 493 for petrol vehicles; 191 for methane / lpg vehicles and 54 for diesel cars.
The commissioner: “We’ll see whether to put other resources”
“The appreciation of this measure – continued the Councilor for the Environment – and the preference for the purchase of zero-emission cars is a fact that we welcome. We had to suspend registration on the site for access to the benefit, but many citizens had already registered and could not access the resources“. “We will evaluate in the next few days – concluded Cattaneo – together with the President of the Region Attilio Fontana, the Executive Committee and on the basis of discussions with the Government if the conditions exist to be able to integrate the call with additional resources“. The announcement was made on Lombardia News, the official organ of the region, after rumors had been running around throughout the day that funds were already exhausted in the morning due to the boom in requests. Creating a remarkable disorientation between dealers and customers.
