Some types of low-emission vehicles are eligible for a grant from the government, so that you can buy them more cheaply.

You do not apply for the grant. The seller includes it as a discount in the purchase price.

If you work for a vehicle dealership or manufacturer, you can apply for a grant using the online portal.

Eligible vehicles

Only vehicles that have been approved by the government are eligible.

The discount you can get depends on the type of vehicle.

The types of eligible vehicles are:

  • wheelchair accessible vehicles
  • motorcycles
  • small and large vans
  • small and large trucks
  • taxis
