Fuel: the association calls for a reduction in taxation News from Auto Plus in your smartphone News from Auto Plus in your inbox

For more than a year, the price of fuel has remained the highest. It is a difficult situation for motorists, many of whom have already applied for compensation of 100 euros. However, this is only reserved for the most modest workers who declared a basic taxable income of less than €14,700 in 2021. In total, this aid should cover ten million people, which should make it possible to compensate for the price increase. But this is far from enough, and many drivers will not be able to use it. This is especially true the unemployedas well as anyone with a slightly higher income.

To lower taxes?

Therefore, the solution will not be to establish state aid, but to reduce taxes. And it is worth knowing that the latter make up at least 60% of the price of a liter of gasoline and diesel. According to the association, the situation is intolerable 40 million motorists, which calls on our leaders to cut taxes. In a column published in the Journal Du Dimanche, Delegate General Pierre Chassère calls on the government to “iWe need sustainable fuel measures. In 2012, Jean-Marc Herault already advocated a reduction in fuel taxation on a special basis. Because even then, in the conditions of a sharp rise in oil prices, the French found themselves caught by the throat“.

As far as?

But then how much will fall? Then Pierre Chassère suggests ” a reduction of taxationfor fuel under 5.5%, for the first necessity“. This would then correspond to a saving of 22 cents on each litre. He also offers to come inabout twenty cents per TICPE. The spokesperson of the association also reminds that “all European rankings show France between 3rd and 5th place in terms of fuel taxation. We pierce too much, so it’s unacceptable.”
