The Rabla 2026 program quickly exhausted its funds shortly after reopening registrations, with motorcycle allocations gone in one minute and electric vehicle funds in five minutes. The program aimed to support the purchase of new vehicles with approximately 3,200 eco-tickets available, offering discounts up to 18,500 lei. Despite this, the Romanian auto market is declining, with new car registrations down over 10% in 2026 compared to last year. The program was relaunched with a budget of 35 million lei, requiring participants to scrap a vehicle older than eight years.
