The third vice president and minister for ecological transition and demographic challenge, Sara AagesenVery improvable
All of them have described this “positive” decision, although entities such as T&E consider this Moves III for the electric vehicle, as well as the previous ones, of «of«Very improvable»As the organization has criticized on multiple occasions.
Specifically, from ANFAC, its general director, José López-Tafall, has expressed that the recovery of Moves III «It’s great news“That arrives” at a complicated geopolitical moment and with a tariff scenario, in which the Spanish government promotes the internal market and the electric vehicle market. “
Sell more electrical models
López-Tafall, added that it is a «A desired measure»By the sector to meet the decarbonization objectives because the« objectives go to sell more electrical models, and if these are made in Spain and in Europe, It will help us gain more and more strategic autonomy».
«From Spain A clear message is launched in the commitment to electrification In a moment of uncertainty for US tariff pressures towards Europe, ”the ANFAC general director emphasized.
ANFAC considers that this reactivation is good news that comes almost at the same time from the plans announced by the Basque Country and believes that «There will be an important stimulus to demand and, above all, they will contribute to eliminating vehicles over 20 years old and reinforce the domestic market ».
Contribute certainty to buyers
From Faconauto, Raúl Morales, director of Communication, has expressed that both “the renewal of the Moves Plan and the 15% deduction in the IRPF to the purchase of electric vehicles arrive in a moment«Key to maintain market dynamism Seen in this first quarter and, above all, to contribute certainty to the final customer ».
«The plan offers the security framework necessary to boost demand. From the dealers we were already detecting a 50% drop in the orders of electrified vehiclesprecisely due to the lack of visibility on aid. This renewal, therefore, is excellent news for both consumers and for the whole sector, ”Morales added.
Transient solution
For his part, the president of Ganvam, Gerardo Cabañas, has considered «positive»This reactivation, but emphasizes that it must be a«transient solution».
After these positive valuations, the more efforts requests from the government have also arrived, Who have asked for more clarity and perseverance To give “immediate confidence to buyers”, although he has urged the Executive to continue reviewing the approach of the programs to “guarantee their effectiveness”, as urged from Ganvam.
Insufficient electrification rhythm
In this way, Ganvam stressed that the electrification rhythm is “insufficient” to meet the objectives, to which it adds that the park “does not stop aging”, so the association advocates by a Centralized incentive management plan for demand That, with direct tax aids and respecting the principle of technological neutrality, contributes to the oldest and polluting models from the circulation.
In addition, with the aim of guaranteeing the access of all income to efficient mobility, Ganvam Bet to include support for the occasion vehicle of up to five years in impulse planssince “the demand will boost, it will promote the rejuvenation of the park and accelerate the decarbonization objectives.”
Aedive: end to uncertainty
The Business Association for the Development and Promotion of Electric Mobility (AEDIVE) has stressed that with this movement «The uncertainty of the incentives to the electric vehicle is ended», And then remember that the debate of validation of this royal decree, which will be presented alone, It will have to be produced in the next 30 days.
«It is understood that, given the unanimous claim of the business and industrial sector, which urgently requested this measure, There will be the support of the political groups of the parliamentary arch», The organization said.
It is more necessary
From t & e, they qualify the late Moves III as positive, but They claim that more effort is needed to be attractive enough. They explain that the plan «is Very improvable», But has lacks as not being able to perceive it at the time of purchase.
Consider that it is «a subsidy that had so far complex and extremely slow administrative processes (up to 24 months) ». From T&E, the words of the third vice president of the Government and Minister for the ecological transition and the demographic challenge Sara Aagesen that “has announced IMPROVEMENTS IN THE SIMPLIFICATION OF PROCESSING».
The Moves III tributes in the income statement Although it is true that for individuals the possibility of deducting 15% in the IRPF has been prolonged (Up to 3,000 euros). Finally, it is also applicable to plug -in hybrid vehicles with too limited autonomy ranges.
Insufficient efforts
However, t & e qualifies these insufficient efforts because it is a tax-based taxation that “makes us separate us from what happens in France and Portugal, which have pure electric vehicles of 16.9% and 19.9%, respectively, far from the 5.6% of Spain.”
According to Isabell Büscchel, director of T&E in Spain, «to allow Spain redefine energy efficient vehicles in kindness in kindmake them benefit from VAT deduction (with a differentiation between PHEV and BEV) and discounts on the Corporation Tax ».
