“After the decreases of the first two months of 2025, in March the Italian car market improves the performance compared to the same month as last year, which counted the same number of working days (21) ” comments on the President of Anfia Roberto Vavassori. Meanwhile, the European Commission has transmitted to Parliament and to the Council modification on the fines to the car houses and the Anfia hopes that “European institutions quickly adopt this proposal, which, although very far from what would really serve our sector, unlocks a stall that has become unsustainable. Surreal events like this – he underlines Vavassor – They show us how unfortunately the awareness of the profound crisis in which our industry is found is missing at the level of European institutions and what measures it needs to find the way to return to a normal regime ”. According to Anfia, it serves ” a Pan-European and ten-year duration plan that has the aim of decarbonizing mobility in a much more consistent way than any measure today under discussion, even those at 2035 ”. To date, the European circulating park, as well as the Italian one, “records an average length of about 12.5 years, with high risks of sinisterness and certainty of pollution ”. It is therefore necessary to “encourage the spare of the European circulating park, and therefore also the Italian one, through well -dispected financial and tax aid by supporting the products and the Made components in eco -compatible Europe is for us the main way to concretely combine environmental responsibility with the industrial one, keeping employment of high quality and responding with the facts to commercial blocks that come from different countries ”.

The registrations of cars, after seven months of calm, recorded a 6.2% growth in March touching 172,223 which is not however sufficient to bring the first quarter of the year positive – he says Gian Primo Quagliano, president of the Promotor Study Center -. However, the question that arises is if others will follow at the swallow of March or if the growth of March is only a rebound. The monthly concessionaires conducted in recent days from the Promotor Study Center shows that last month there was a rebound in recent days, but the framework of the Italian car market remains critical. For 39% of the dealers interspersed with the turnout in the showrooms, it was low and in the coming months for 74% of the interpellations the sales will remain stable on the low current levels and for 16% the situation could even worsen “https://www.Finance.it/detaglionews/239_2025-01_TLB/” on the other- -projecting the result of the first three months over the whole year and taking into account the seasonality of sales, an estimate of 1,436,818 registrations is obtained in the entire 2025 with a drop on 2024 of 7.8% and with a drop of 25% on the ante-crisis levels, that is, on the level of 1,916,951 registrations of 2019. ante-crisis levels “.
“The decision of the United States to impose 25% duties from 2 April on the imports of vehicles produced abroad” awakens great concern in the sector – he underlines Michele Crisci, president of UNRAE – National Union representatives Foreign Autoons -. From today’s statements by President Von der Leyen it emerges that, while maintaining the goal of a negotiating solution, the European Commission is evaluating with the European state and government heads of state and government with an immediate countermeasures plan aimed at affecting specific US products, guaranteeing a minimum impact on the European economy. A commercial war of this type will penalize everyone: global car manufacturers and both American and European consumers. As already requested by Acea, the UNRAE hopes that negotiating solutions are quickly found, also in light of the huge investments of European car manufacturers in the United States, which contribute to the creation of jobs, the economic growth and tax revenue of that country. Coming then to the more strictly national competence issues, during the automotive table held at Mimit on 14 March last, the UNRAE presented some concrete proposals to accelerate the diffusion of vehicles to zero and very low emissions, with particular attention to the development of charging infrastructures. “We asked Minister Urso to promote an interministerial table to face the revision of the taxation of corporate cars with the utmost urgency, starting from the penalizing treatment for companies in terms of deductibility, deductibility and amortization, but also considering the recent changes to the fringe benefit, which contradict the principle of technological neutrality and risk creating negative impacts on the market” concluded Crisci.
