Spain Rolls Out Auto+ EV Incentives With Point-of-Sale Discounts as Payment Delays Fuel Doubts

Critics doubt the €400 million program will deliver funds quickly.

Overview

  • The government presented Auto+ on February 3 as the successor to the Moves schemes to revive electric-vehicle sales.
  • The plan applies up to €4,500 off at the dealership and centralizes processing under a single national platform.
  • Recent reporting says roughly half of the EV purchase aid granted in 2025 has yet to be paid out.
  • Industry representatives describe the new package as insufficient and warn the money may not reach buyers before mid‑year.
  • Auto+ is funded with €400 million and is positioned within the Spain Auto 2030 strategy to ease buying costs and boost uptake.
