Amsterdam reintroduces grant for EV's

[Adm]

In 2011 grants for EV's was discontinued, but it's back. Now it's only available for cars that have a high mileage in the city.

EV cars: €5000/$6400
Taxi's: €10000/$12800
Delivery vans: €10000/$12800
Trucks: €40000/$51200

There is no word on how high high mileage is...

The maximum amount spend is €8.6 million/$10.3 million

The press release is in Dutch (sorry):

Correct, it's for businesses only.

We have no VAT exception for EV's, but EV's in Holland are except from BPM (up to 40%) and 'bijtelling' (up to 25%).

And exempt from road tax too I believe.

We will not have to pay the VAT, my wife works for an international organization
