The government has increased subsidies for the car transferring from gasoline to gas

The state will subsidize about a half of the expenses of businesses and citizens for the transfer of transport from gasoline to gas (methane). The new procedure implies a doubling of subsidy standards in 2022 - from the current 24 to 48% of the total cost of work, the press service of the Russian government reports. As noted, the decision will stimulate the transfer of transport from gasoline to methane and support the demand for this type of fuel from business and citizens.

As AUTOSTAT previously reported, Ministry of Industry and Trade may extend the preferential car loan program, which is valid until December 1st, 2022. Under the terms of the state program, the subsidized discount from the federal budget is up to 20% of the cost of the car, and for sold cars in the subjects of the Far Eastern Federal District - 25% to compensate for the cost of car delivering from the European part of Russia. All UAZ, LADA, GAZ models worth up to 2 million rubles, as well as all Evolute electric vehicles manufactured at the Motorinvest plant in Lipetsk, which are subject to an increased discount of 35% of the cost of the car, but no more than 925 thousand rubles. Production of Evolute electric vehicles will start in September, and the first cars will be on sale in the same month.
