Fiat 500e is trending in Spain 2022
The support programs in Spain for electromobility are known as "MOVES". In April 2021, the government presented and approved the current MOVES III program. The program has a budget of 400 million euros until 2023, but can be expanded to up to 800 million euros if necessary. This increases the subsidy for the purchase of an electric car to up to 7.000 euros. In Spain, in order to obtain the full premium for the buyer, a used car more than 7 years old must be scrapped.

Does the Wrangler still have the off-road gene?
Winter tire regulations
However, since June 1, 2017, with the 52nd ordinance amending road traffic regulations for winter tires, new regulations and technical requirements apply. So far it was considered sufficient that winter tires were marked with "M + S". These tires were characterized by deeper grooves and larger lugs than normal tires.
Jaguar I-Pace EV400 travel test 2022
Hardly any other model currently stands for the consistent switch to electromobility at Jaguar like the I-PACE. By the year 2025, Jaguar will consistently switch to electromobility in all vehicles. Since the former Renault boss Thierry Bolloré took over the management at Jaguar, a positioning in the premium segment has also been consistently pursued. In our test, we focus on the current Jaguar I-Pace and test it as a touring sedan on our trip to Scandinavia. The coupe… Continue reading "Jaguar I-Pace EV400 travel test 2022
