Germany announces more funds to encourage shift to cleaner trucks More news

23 May 2008

The German Government has announced a further €85m to add to a €100m support fund which is designed to encourage emissions reductions from the heavy goods sector.

The subsidies allow vehicle buyers to choose between cheaper loans or direct grants of up to €4,250 per truck. Vehicles must meet the EU's Euro V or EEV Class 1 emission standards. Germany's Tranport Ministry says that there will be incentives to buy even cleaner Euro VI vehicles once the standard is incorporated into German law.
