Volkswagen Ireland is relaunching the EcoGrant offer to encourage buyers to consider changing to a lower-emission new car, while also removing older, Euro 1-4 emissions standard vehicles from Irish roads.
Owners of any petrol or diesel vehicle that complies with pre-Euro 5 emissions legislation qualify for the EcoGrant offer and can trade-in the vehicle to benefit from incentives – ranging from €1,000 to €5,000 – against a variety of Volkswagen models.
The trade-in vehicle needs to have been owned by the customer for at least six months. Volkswagen has set up a special website – www.ecogrant.ie where you can find out if your current vehicle qualifies.
The EcoGrant offer is available across the Volkswagen range from entry-level cars such as the up! or Polo, to the Golf, Touran, T-Roc, Tiguan, Arteon, Sharan and new Touareg.
To find out more, log on to www.volkswagen.ie or contact your local Volkswagen retailer.
