📋 Tender Overview
The transport tax benefit for owners of electric vehicles in Moscow is planned to be extended in 2025. This was announced in a conversation with TASS journalists by Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin. It was zero and remains so. We extend it [the benefit] every year, it is introduced for a year <...>. Now we are introducing a law to the Duma again, Sobyanin said.
He emphasized that the development of electric transport in Moscow is not a one-time fashionable topic, sooner or later the majority of cars will be either electric or hydrogen.
According to him, environmentally friendly transport is very important for a large city, since more than 80% of pollution in Moscow is caused by cars. The mayor noted that batteries for electric transport are being improved, due to which their mileage increases, and even for Russian roads it is becoming quite acceptable. At the first stage of the transition from internal combustion engines, most cars will be hybrids. Sobyanin added that today electric cars are sold in small numbers - only 1% of the total number, but their number has increased 20-fold over the past few years. We will consistently pursue a policy so that there are more and more electric cars in Moscow every year, the mayor said.
