Romania’s government-run Rabla Program, designed to renew the pool of cars in the country and encourage the purchase of energy-saving and producing solutions, has changed dramatically for 2026, and now includes two concurrent funding lines for environmentally-friendly cars and storage batteries worth RON 700 million (EUR 134 million) in total.
The new program will finance only private individuals, exclusively for the purchase of cars produced and assembled in Europe. Roughly RON 300 million is to be allocated to this end. The program parameters will therefore leave out Chinese car brands, which are gaining an increasing share of the market, according to TVRInfo.
