Purchase incentive 2026: the federal E-Mobilitätsförderung (E-Mobilitätsbonus — Austria's EV purchase grant) for new electric cars is no longer available — the funding budget is exhausted, new applications are not being accepted from private buyers or businesses, and the manufacturer co-funded share has also expired. So in 2026 there is no government purchase grant for a new electric car. The main remaining purchase advantage is the NoVA exemption (see below). We state this separately and include no purchase grant in the total costs shown above. Source: klimaaktiv mobil / Tullner Automeile, as of . Check the current situation before you buy.
