I think that is the highest incentive out there, would it entice you to switch if the US raised it from 7500?

France has been experimenting with several ways to reduce pollution from urban cars. From paying people to bike and creating more bike lanes to banning cars one day a year in Paris, they’ve tried a lot of things. Now, the Ministry of Ecology, Sustainable Development and Energy wants to try a different approach.

They’re especially targeting older cars, which are responsible for a disproportionate amount of emissions. The “conversion premium” is available to any citizen who wants to trade his old car for a new, electric vehicle. You can get up to €10,000 ($11,321.47 at today’s exchange rate) if a fully electric vehicle is selected, or up to €6,500 ($7,358.37) for a plug-in hybrid.
