Paris To Begin Rolling Ban On Older Vehicles This Summer

Want to continue to drive in Paris? You’ll need a new vehicle starting this summer, when the French city begins restricting older vehicles from its heart.



Autocar reports coaches, buses and trucks registered prior to September 30, 2001, as well as cars registered before December 31, 1996 and vans and light trucks registered before September 30, 1997 will all be barred from entering the city center starting this summer. The restrictions will roll forward through 2020, when cars registered after 2011 and motorcycles registered after this July will be the only ones allowed within.


The upcoming restrictions, as well as the nation’s own changing view on diesel, could prompt owners to ditch their older, less green vehicles for cleaner solutions like EVs and turbo-powered models, especially those made by French automakers. Incentives, such as paying €10,000 ($11,420 USD) to make the switch, would further encourage such moves.
