Alexandra Legendre of the Drivers’ Defense League (LDC) considers the implementation of an electric car rental offer at €100 per month insufficient.
As he announced during his presidential campaign in March, Emmanuel Macron wishes to set up a electric car rental offer at 100 euros per month. A measure deemed insufficient, by Alexandra Legendre, of the Drivers Defense League. The sum remains difficult to reachboth for those offering it and for customers:
“100 euros is still 100 euros. They have to be taken out. A quarter of the population cannot afford a euro for a car. $100 is still a lot of money. »
“When you see new players doing very extensive leasing models over a longer period of time, they have a hard time getting below €150. So, the €100, I’m curious to see how the government can get there. »
An offer that should be extended to more vehicles
However, our interlocutor believes that we should go further and extend this aid to those for whom electric cars do not correspond. It is, according to her, ” obvious “ that this aid should be extended “at least to Crit’Air 1 and used cars. All-electric is not going to be enough for many drivers. »
Nevertheless many gray areas concerning this device still need to be clarified. Especially since local solutions are being implementedas Alexandra Legendre points out:
“We will wait for a little more details (as to the car rental at 100€/month). Communities and associations are setting up electric vehicle car-sharing, like Autolib, to go to the ZFEs when you don’t have the vehicle for it. We must underline the intelligence of the local response to these needs. »
Let us recall that Christophe Béchu, Minister for Ecological Transition and Territorial Cohesion, has gave some details on this subjecton France info February 22:
“The subject is the implementation of the leasing at 100 euros promised by the President of the Republic. We are working on it, it is in 2023 that we will configure it, but we want it to benefit European industry. “By the end of the year, we will configure the device, so that we can start reserving our electric car. »
