The Rabla 2026 program has started, offering eco-vouchers between 10,000 and 18,500 lei for new car purchases. The budget exceeds 35 million lei, with online registrations through the AFM platform. The program will run until the end of the year or until funds are exhausted. Despite this initiative, the Romanian auto market faces challenges, with new car registrations down by nearly 6% in October compared to last year. Overall, new car sales have decreased by over 10% in the first ten months of 2026. However, electric vehicle registrations have surged by almost 46%. The market for imported used cars has also declined, with a nearly 15% drop in registrations.
