What the State takes off the price
€7,000
Bringing a €45,000 car to €38,000. The dealer applies both at purchase — you pay the final price, you do not claim it back.
VRT relief tapers away and stops entirely above €50,000, and the SEAI grant has both a floor and a ceiling on list price — which is why a slightly cheaper trim can be several thousand euro better off than the one above it. Grant rates and the price cap are scheduled to change; confirm with the dealer before you order.
You don't need to apply! Your dealer handles the entire grant application process.
Grant is paid directly to the dealer by SEAI. VRT relief is applied at registration. The process is seamless for you.
