The Peruvian government rejected a project in Congress to promote electromobility in the country, alleging that it would generate a fiscal cost equivalent to some US$ 5,476 million due to an eventual exemption from different taxes<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
According to information from the Reuters <\/strong>news agency, the project is currently being debated in the Legislative power, dominated by right-wing parties, seeking to encourage the electric vehicle market in the South American nation<\/strong>, a global trend for the replacement of fossil fuels such as gasoline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Through an official statement, the Ministry of Economy described the proposal as regressive and ineffective because it mainly benefits a segment of the population that does not need state aid<\/strong> and will not contribute to reduce the impact of environmental pollution or vehicle congestion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
