Hybrid vehicles constitute a special category in themselves, from a variety of aspects that are relevant to the process of importing a vehicle from abroad, such as taxation aspects. Therefore, if you decide to import such a vehicle through personal import, it is very advisable to do so through professionals. We at exodus car are skilled in this and can explain to you what can and cannot be imported for this type of vehicle, what the various implications are, what the procedures are, the costs, and more.
(type) new vehicle on the road
Hybrid vehicles are vehicles that combine two propulsion methods – both a conventional engine and an electric motor. In this way, they make it possible to reduce environmental damage and save energy. However, this is a particularly complex mechanism, which constitutes a special type of vehicle, quite different from standard vehicles. Vehicles of this type are still not very common, but they have gradually become part of the picture of the different types of vehicles that you see on the roads and that you order as personal imports from abroad.
Why is it worth it?
Many people are interested in these types of vehicles, since they are fuel-efficient and less harmful to the environment. The fuel savings are, of course, also reflected in the ongoing costs of using the vehicle. Another reason is that they constitute a practical intermediate solution, between electric cars, which are not yet fully mature, and cars with the old technology of the internal combustion engine, which is known to be a pollutant and a particularly inefficient engine.

These vehicles excel in lower air pollution levels than regular vehicles. It is important and interesting to know that the less pollution they cause, the lower the purchase tax on them. Depending on the technology the vehicle operates on, there may be further tax discounts. All of this stems from the fact that the state is trying to encourage the use of these types of vehicles – a point that we can assume will also be seen in the future. This is another important point by the way – these vehicles “have a future”, in terms of where the automotive world is heading.
