Car buyers can hope for significant discounts despite the environmental bonus. According to a study, a Citroen model achieved the highest price reduction.
Despite the scrapping bonus, car buyers can continue to hope for significant discounts averaging 16.5 percent, according to the results of a study. If you add the temporary vehicle tax exemption for new purchases in addition to the scrapping bonus, the price advantages for car buyers in Germany currently add up to a historic high of over 20 percent, said the automotive expert and director of the CAR Institute at the University of Duisburg / Essen, Professor Ferdinand Dudenhöffer, with me on Monday.
30 percent for Xsara Picasso
But only new car buyers who could secure the scrapping bonus of 2500 euros would get over 20 percent. The government is providing 1.5 billion euros for this. That is enough for almost 600,000 premiums, as the administrative costs are also included in the funding pot.
For their study, the researchers evaluated 263 discount campaigns. Dealers granted the highest discounts of over 30 percent on the list price of a Citroen Xsara Picasso. (dpa)
