WHAT DOES SCRAPPAGE MEAN IN ENGLISH?

scrappage

Scrappage program

A scrappage program is a government budget program to promote the replacement of old vehicles with modern vehicles. Scrappage programs generally have the dual aim of stimulating the automobile industry and removing inefficient, high emissions vehicles from the road. Many European countries have introduced large-scale scrappage programs as an economic stimulus to increase market demand in the industrial sector during the global recession that began in 2008. Scrappage programs were touted with different names, mostly referring to an environmental benefit. The Vehicle Efficiency Incentive in Canada was based on fuel-efficiency of cars. In Germany the economic stimulus program was called "Umweltprämie" and in Austria "Ökoprämie" while most of the public referred to it simply as "Abwrackprämie". Other countries have not tried to connect the program title with an environment aspect - still the Italian "Incentivi alla rottamazione" and French "Prime à la casse" require the new car to meet modern emission standards.
