The state announced additional support measures. Firstly, the discount on electric cars of categories N2 and M2 (for example, “batteries” wagons and minibuses E-Gazelle) has grown. Secondly, the discount on preferential leasing for public transport is increased from 10% to 40%. Finally, according to the state program, they allowed to sell cars produced in the IV quarter of 2024.
In 2025, 27 billion rubles were allocated from the budget for the car support program in 2025. Despite the benefits, sales are falling: for example, in February 2025, the demand for buses fell three times. Electric cars of commercial categories N2 and M2 are also not in demand: the previous discount of 925 thousand rubles and did not compensate for the difference in cost with diesel analogues.

Now the state is ready to subsidize up to two million rubles. Thus, the Gazelle E-NN electric minibus will fit to 5.7 million rubles. The fuel analogue is still much more affordable: the passenger version is sold at a price of 3.8-4.0 million rubles, depending on the equipment and the number of seats.

In Europe, “Battery” versions of Volkswagen or Mercedes-Benz van are also twice as much as diesel analogues, and without state subsidies, piece-rate subsidies. But in China, electric cars directly compete with fuel analogues in all categories of LCV.
