You certainly haven’t missed the news of the week in the automotive world: the list of electric cars eligible for the environmental bonus in France in 2024.

Therefore, around sixty models are still covered by this subsidy, even if for some, like the BMW iX1, you have to be careful with the choice of version so as not to exceed the €47,000 threshold, a threshold that still remains. relevant today for 2024.

Bad news for Dacia, Tesla, Kia or even MG

It will be recalled that the government decided to change the contours of the bonus rules, including more precise, even protectionist criteria, even if it refuses to use the term. This new version of the environmental bonus lies in its focus on vehicles with the best carbon footprint. In other words, if they are not made in Europe, there is no chance that these models will be eligible for the bonus.

Various environmental criteria are taken into account, such as the materials used, the type of battery, the energy consumption of the factory and the impact of vehicles.

In this list, we find some of the best-selling electric cars in France, including the Tesla Model 3 and the Dacia Spring. Hyundai and Kia won’t have a party either, as only the electric Kona retains the bonus. All other models of Korean brands are excluded. The sixth best-selling electric model in France in 2023, the MG4 is no longer eligible for the bonus due to its production in China, like the Spring and Model 3.
