April 20, 2021
France is offering motorists the chance to trade in their old, gas-guzzling cars and swap them for a brand-new e-bike.
The French government is aiming to encourage more people to ditch the car and start pedalling, in an attempt to dramatically reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 2030.
In the new initiative, if it is adopted by the authorities, will let resides trade in their vehicles in exchange for a €2,500 (£2,155) grant to buy an electric-powered bike, Reuters reports.
