Pure electric vehicles receive 50% of the maximum aid, while plug-in hybrids receive 25%. The vehicle&#039;s price and place of manufacture also influence the final amount.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3><b>Personal Income Tax Deduction: The Tax Incentive for Individuals<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Individuals who purchase an electric vehicle <\/span><b>New for private use<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> can apply a <\/span><b>deduction of 15%<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the acquisition value in your Income Tax return.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The key points are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Maximum deduction base: 20,000 euros<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, with a maximum tax saving of <\/span><b>3,000 euros<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The public aid received (Plan Auto+) is deducted from the base before calculating the deduction.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The vehicle must be new and cannot be used for any economic activity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Payment must be made by card, bank transfer or check; cash is not accepted.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This deduction will be applied in the 2026 Income Tax return, which will be filed from spring 2027 onwards.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Practical example:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> An electric passenger car costing \u20ac35,000, with \u20ac4,500 in Auto+ assistance and a \u20ac1,000 dealer discount, has a net cost of \u20ac29,500. The 15% deduction is applied to the \u20ac20,000 limit, resulting in an additional \u20ac3,000 in tax savings.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3><b>Freedom of depreciation: the tax advantage for companies and the self-employed<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When the vehicle is acquired for business or professional purposes, the 15% deduction does not apply. Instead, the main incentive is the <\/span><b>amortization freedom<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, available for purchases made in 2024, 2025 and 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This method allows for accelerated tax deductions of the vehicle&#039;s cost, without having to wait for the regular depreciation installments spread over several years. The effect is an early reduction in taxable income in the initial years, resulting in significant cash flow savings.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The types of vehicles that can be included are the same as for the Auto+ Plan: BEV, PHEV, REEV and FCV. <\/span><b>Important:<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> This benefit only applies to new vehicles; used vehicles are excluded.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4>\u00a0<\/h4>\n<h4><b>Self-employed: attention to the degree of impact<\/b><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the self-employed, the key is demonstrating the extent to which the vehicle is used for business purposes. As a general rule, regulations presume business use of 50% for passenger cars, unless a higher percentage can be proven. Certain specific sectors (taxis, driving schools, rental companies) can deduct up to 100% of the VAT paid.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3><b>Other tax benefits to consider<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Beyond the deductions in personal income tax and corporate income tax, electric vehicles enjoy other advantages:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>Exemption from registration tax<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> due to its reduced emissions.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><b>IVTM Bonuses<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> (road tax) in numerous municipalities.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Possible additional incentives at the level <\/span><b>regional and local<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>\u00a0<\/h3>\n<h3><b>What happens to the subsidy in the tax return?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The subsidies offered by the Auto+ Plan are not tax-neutral.
