What if the state stopped scrapping old cars in good condition? This is the wish of the environmentalist senators who are proposing a bill to this effect this Wednesday. Objective: save 20,000 cars from the scrapyard and put them into solidarity rental, to help low-income households access more recent cars, at a very low price.
What if we tried to save old cars in good condition from the scrapyard? This is the idea that sprouted in the heads of environmentalist senators who are presenting a bill this Wednesday. Because today, a motorist can receive between 2,500 and 9,000 euros in conversion bonus, depending on their income, when they part with a Crit’Air 3 vehicle to buy a less polluting vehicle. His car then goes to the scrapyard, regardless of its condition. A heresy for Senator Jacques Ferrand, who intends to save the gasoline cars that can be saved.
Up to 20,000 cars saved from scrapyards each year
“I am an ecologist because I want an effective ecology. Otherwise, it is doctrine, it is theory. However, effective ecology is one which offers solutions, practicable solutions, affordable solutions and solutions that are united”, he explains at the microphone of Europe 1.
Because the 20,000 cars that might be recovered each year would be reserved for solidarity rental. A mechanism which allows the most modest households to have a car at a very low price, like what certain initiatives offer such as the Givevotrevoiture.org platform. The platform allows Anne-Béatrice to rent one for only six euros per month.
Nearly four million French people without a transport solution
“I am in the process of launching my company and I need this vehicle to get my materials, to be able to produce what I sell. Without this organization, I would not have been able to progress as I have been able to. there for three months. We have to be realistic,” she believes.
In total, there are four million French people who do not have local transport solutions and for whom the electric car remains a pipe dream.
