Clean cars

Finance Minister, George Alogoskoufis announced the introduction of a new road tax system, taking into consideration gas emissions and incentives for the withdrawal within a 5-year period of old technology cars, estimated to be 30% of cars still running on the roads of the capital city. The environment road tax, which will replace the existing road taxes, aim to reduce the number of old technology cars blamed for high emissions. Cars with high gas emissions will end up paying triple road taxes compared to "clean cars".
