100€ a month for ppl that can afford to buy an ev while most ppl drive a 20 year old car that is falling apart bc ppl can't afford a new one seems like is not really helping the people thay need help
So I wasn't sure which one of us misunderstood so I went to read on the French page, and it is indeed a scheme where people with low income can lease the car for 100€ per month, as in that's what they'll have to pay per month, rather than a discount on the price of a normal lease.
oy that's nice then
this is borderline communist for Macron. What happened to him?
He was always like this and has been distributing public money left and right. France's public spending and taxation as a share of GDP are at all time highs.
It's just the French left thinks everybody to their right is a spawn of Reagan and Thatcher.
It's so nationalistic and anti China that it came full circle.
Given that who is driving a 20 year old car (but car's age does not really matter) now spend much more than 100 € a month for the fuel, it does not seems to be that expensive.
And anyway 20k € for a car are not that much these days if you want to buy a brand new car. I get that many people could not even afford that much, but it is not that nowadays an used car is much less expensive, if you want a decent one.
