Guide February 17, 2025

Imagine: it's March 2025, and your company receives a hefty bill. Not because of a late payment or an administrative oversight, but because your fleet of vehicles doesn't comply with regulations. The result? A fine of up to €5,000 per non-compliant vehicle.

Yes, you read that right. A new wave of penalties is on its way, and they're likely to sting if you don't switch to electric vehicles in time. Don't panic, we'll tell you everything you need to know and, above all... how to avoid paying the fine.

Why will the Finance Bill 2025 have an impact on corporate fleets?

It all starts with the LOM law(Mobility Orientation Law). The aim? To force the transition to clean vehicles by putting pressure on companies.
In concrete terms, if your company ticks these two boxes:
✅ More than 50 employees
✅ A fleet of 100 or more light vehicles

Then you have obligations:
🔹 Since 2022: 10% of new vehicles purchased must be low-emission
🔹 Since 2024: up to 20%
🔹 In 2027: target 40%
🔹 In 2030: 70% of your fleet must be "clean"

And if you don't play the game? Penalties arrive in 2025.

What are the risks for companies?

From March 2025, reluctant companies will feel the pinch. Here's what's in store if you don't meet the clean vehicle quotas:

  • 2,000 fine per missing vehicle by 2025
  • 4,000 in 2026
  • 5,000 in 2027

But that's not all. The 2025 Finance Bill introduces a new annual incentive tax.
🔸 An additional tax will be applied each year to companies that fail to meet greening quotas. It is calculated according to the number of vehicles short of the targets set by law.
🔸 The total amount of penalties is capped at 1% of the company's sales.
🔸 Non-compliant companies may also be excluded from public procurement contracts.

Clearly, waiting is no longer an option.

Why this regulation?

Let's be honest: company fleets are among the biggest polluters. The company car is all well and good, but when they're still running on diesel in 2025, the climate is in trouble.
The government is therefore urging companies to:
Reduce their carbon footprint (zero emissions target by 2050)
Accelerate the adoption of electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles
Reduce dependence on fossil fuels

And of course, more electric vehicles means more charging stations. Here too, there's work to be done.

OK, but how do you avoid sanctions?

Good news: you still have time to act. Here's how to make your fleet compliant without breaking your budget:

1️⃣ Audit your fleet

How many vehicles do you need to renew to comply with the law? It's better to anticipate than to suffer.

2️⃣ Gradually switch to electric

No need to change everything overnight. Plan your renewals by prioritizing the models best suited to your business.

3️⃣ Anticipate your refill needs

Having a green fleet is all well and good, but if your employees can't recharge easily, it can become an obstacle to the transition. A suitable recharging infrastructure is therefore essential to support the switch to electric vehicles.
