Government incentives 2023
Purchase subsidies
In Switzerland the incentives for EVs deviate strongly between cities and federal regions (‘Kantons). Subsidies can be up to CHF 5,000 per vehicle (e.g.,in the city of Basel for companies purchasing a fully electric vehicle).
Registration tax benefits
Most federal regions exempt electric cars from road tax for the first three years.
Other financial benefits
On a national level there is an import tax discount of 4%on the value of the vehicle (for car traders).
Infrastructure incentives
Like with purchase subsidies, each federal region decides on incentives for charging. Incentives vary a lot between the cities and regions, but Bern (for example) provides an incentive for companies of CHF 1,500 for an AC charging point below 22 kW.
