THG-Quote (over 2.000 €)
As a private or commercial e-vehicle owner, you can now participate in the instrument of the greenhouse gas emission quota (THG quota).
This has created the possibility for you in 2022 to receive an e-bonus in the amount of 375 EUR per electric vehicle annually. You will receive this bonus paid annually. This means that you will receive the bonus every year.
A THG bonus is guaranteed to be paid annually by the Federal Environmental Agency until 2030. This means you can save over 2.000 €.
How do I apply for the THG bonus?
For the Bonfire S, E and X we recommend ADAC: https://www.adac.de/rund-ums-fahrzeug/elektromobilitaet/kaufen/thg-quote/
For the Bonfire S, there is a little trick:
For a successful confirmation of the THG bonus, a registration certificate Part I (front and back) is mandatory. You can obtain this registration certificate by registering your Bonfire S at the car registration (so-called voluntary registration).
