Concern for the ecological transition is stronger than ever, and minimizing our environmental footprint has become a top collective priority. In this spirit, support mechanisms have been put in place to promote the use of more environmentally friendly modes of daily transportation.
Several local authorities offer financial aid to facilitate the purchase of electric bikes. These subsidies vary depending on where you live and can take different forms: a discount on the purchase price, income-based assistance, or partnerships with specialized providers.
Globle Village recommends:
-
Visit your city hall or local authority’s website for more information.
-
Inquire with your regional or departmental council.
-
Check the aid programs available in your city on our website.

What is the Sustainable Mobility Package?
To consider:
To encourage new eco-responsible means of transportation, companies can offer the new Sustainable Mobility Package. It replaces the bike commuting allowance. The maximum amount for this aid is set at €500 per year per employee. It is exempt from social contributions and income tax.
Companies have the freedom to cover mobility costs for the following modes of transport:
-
Individual bike: electric or traditional.
-
Shared transport services (use of electric or hybrid vehicles, rental, and bike-sharing services).

With Globle Village, maximize aids and subsidies for your bike purchase:
Globle Village guides you through the maze of available aids, bonuses, grants, and subsidies to support your transition to gentler mobility while respecting your budget. On this page, explore various subsidies for electric bikes, cargo bikes, and muscle-assist bikes.
Government subsidies for your bike purchase:
For example, the state offers an ecological bonus of up to €400 for electric bikes or the conversion premium, which can reach €3,000 when purchasing an electric bike by replacing an old vehicle with a new one.
Local financial aids for bike purchases:
Many municipalities also offer subsidies that, combined with state support, can reduce the total cost of your bike. Paris, Lyon, Bordeaux, Montpellier, Grenoble, Lille, Toulouse, and other cities provide local subsidies and bonuses that facilitate bike acquisition while helping reduce your carbon footprint, regardless of your budget.
Subsidies for cargo bike acquisition:
For cargo bikes (longtail, two- or three-wheel cargo bikes), subsidies are just as attractive as for electric bikes. Financial aid for transport bikes can reach €2,000. For example, Paris offers a subsidy of up to €1,200 for purchasing an electric cargo bike. Cargo bike purchases are also eligible for the conversion premium, providing significant support when trading in an old polluting vehicle.
Bonuses also available for traditional bikes:
Subsidies are not limited to electric and cargo bikes. Traditional bikes (touring, gravel, or folding bikes) also receive financial aid in the form of subsidies, bonuses, or grants. Location and income level influence the variation of these aids, encouraging all households to cycle. Indeed, local subsidies for muscle-powered bikes can cover a significant part of the purchase price, making them more accessible to everyone.
