José López-Tafall, general director of ANFAC pointed out that “July closes with the same trend as the previous months. The electrified market continues to grow, but at a rate that is half that of Europe. It is necessary to remember that those citizens who want to buy a plug-in hybrid and pure electric vehicle today have the aid of the MOVES plan and also a 15% deduction for the purchase of an electric vehicle in personal income tax up to 3,000 euros in their tax return. rent. The MOVES plan is valid until the end of the year and together with the new tax advantage it represents a good opportunity for those who want to switch to new technologies. In the medium term, from ANFAC we will continue to insist on profound changes in demand plans, taxation and recharging management, changes that we will logically propose as a priority to the new Government, since the EU objectives do not wait and neither do our competitors,”
