Zapping Auto Moto 2023 Ford Bronco test drive: Banco for the Bronco
As the start of the school year looms, the subject of fuels is a subject of debate. Latest example with Xavier Bertrand. The president (LR) of the Hauts-de-France region believes, like many of his fellow citizens no doubt, that the price of diesel and gasoline is too high.
According to him, the good deed goes through the return of a rebate at the pump. A well-known measure, since it was already in place in France in 2022. The latter was 18 euro cents including tax per liter from April 1 to September 1. It then went to 30 cents, until November 15. This finally dropped to 10 cents before a disappearance on December 31, 2022. France infoXavier Bertrand therefore asked the government to act:
“We are getting used to a liter roughly two euros.” “We need at least 15 to 20 euro cents in rebate per liter [de carburant].” “[Pour rendre] the cost of fuel a little more bearable, [une] new rebate from the State [est] indispensable.”
The rebate on fuel prices, the least worst system
To those who would argue that the rebate on fuel prices benefits, according to INSEE, the wealthiest 25%, the elected official replies that it at least relieves motorists. When the fuel check for 100 euros would have completely missed its target. He pursues :
“When they put in place their famous check, we realize that the government has not even reached the target.” “[Il ne faut] not leave people on the side of the road” and make a discount for “all French people”.
Words that will certainly not fail to affect motorists at a time when fuel prices have increased. To see if this will push the government to act. In the meantime, TotalEnergies is capping the prices of its fuels until the end of the year. Casino, for its part, organizes fuel at cost price every weekend, until October 22.
