Italia elimină „una dintre cele mai urâte taxe”. Meloni anunță măsura care vizează milioane de vehicule

Italy plans to abolish the car tax for 14.5 million vehicles starting next year, costing the state budget over 2 billion euros. This decision aims to boost the government's popularity ahead of the 2027 elections. The measure will apply to motorcycles and over 70% of small and medium-sized cars, with each citizen eligible for one vehicle exemption. Prime Minister Meloni emphasized the continuation of tax reduction policies, while the Economy Minister mentioned the goal of making this exemption permanent. Critics argue this initiative distracts from rising energy prices, and the government has previously reduced fuel taxes to mitigate costs. The EU and IMF have suggested more targeted support measures for vulnerable households and businesses.
