DECLARATIONS
José López-Tafall, general director of ANFAC, pointed out that “despite the positive and growing evolution shown by the market for electrified vehicles, it still remains at a fairly slow pace in our country. The national market continues to be below 10% of the total market, which shows the need to accelerate the rate of entry of this type of vehicle if the new emission reduction requirements set by Europe and supported by Spain are to be met. Until the eighth month, not even half of the necessary market objective set for this year is achieved. From ANFAC we emphasize the urgency of creating a framework that makes electrification an attractive option, safe to use and accessible to the user. For this reason, from the association we defend a series of urgent measures, which accelerate the development of recharging infrastructures, streamline the procedures for the management of the Moves III aid for the installation of recharging points and shorten the periods in which the clients receive grants. Along with this, carry out a fiscal incentive and that this is perceived positively by the citizen and the companies to choose to renew their vehicles for electrified ones”.
