The subsidy will help significantly in increasing the electric drive and electrification of the fleet of vehicles. Since May 1, 2023 alone, 28,608 new applications have been added. To date, a total of 1,170,972 applications have been submitted to the Buffer for clean battery electric vehicles. Plugins are still behind – for them, however, the bonus ended in 2023.
