Don't be fooled by rumours of postponement: 2026 marks a turning point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The opportunity :<\/strong> Article L3120-5 of the French Transport Code provides an exemption for electric VTCs. You are not subject to the restrictions on dimensions (length > 4.50 m) or power (> 84 kW). This means you can operate more compact vehicles if your customers agree.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It's time to dispel a common misconception: there will be no more \u20ac3,000 ecological bonus for companies on private cars in 2026.<\/strong> If your business plan was based on this, you need to redo your calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Profitability now depends on optimising your company's tax position (SASU\/EURL):<\/p>\n\n\n\n That's where you make your money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the secret of wise fleet managers. The battery is not considered as a car, but as a piece of equipment. If you manage to show the price of the battery on a separate line of the purchase invoice<\/strong> (negotiate this with the dealer or leasing company), this part is depreciable. without ceiling<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It's the champion of the PRK (Prix de Revient Kilom\u00e9trique), which can be as low as \u20ac0.10\/km second-hand. With a solid range, it's indestructible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n It's the best-selling vehicle for VTC drivers. Its major asset is its load volume: 854 litres of boot space at the rear + 117 litres at the front (\u00abFrunk\u00bb).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Its trump card is not software, but electrical: its architecture 800 Volts<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With its 87 kWh battery (625 km WLTP), it is reassuring. Its tailgate is practical, and native Google integration is excellent for navigation, without the size constraints of American SUVs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Electrics wear out tyres 20 % faster<\/strong> (instant torque + weight). On 19\" or 20\" rims, the bill stings. Plan ahead for this budget: a set of rear tyres can be flushed in 40,000 - 50,000 km.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Watch out for the opportunity:<\/p>\n\n\n\n This is the simplest and most brutal equation of 2026.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Tip:<\/strong> If you don't have a slow-charging solution (at home or in a box), electric cars won't be profitable. All you'll be doing is shifting your diesel budget to a Supercharger budget, with the added constraint of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Leaving aside risky models and those that are too specialised, the final match is still between Tesla's two sisters, but for radically different reasons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Choose the Tesla Model 3 if :<\/strong> You're on a tighter budget and still do a lot of shopping on application, particularly in town. This is the choice of accounting reason<\/strong> You reduce your costs as much as possible (with an unbeatable PRK of around \u20ac0.10\/km) while still having a vehicle with status.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Choose the Tesla Model Y if :<\/strong> You have a well-established or fast-growing private client base. This is the choice of commercial strategy<\/strong>. A veritable \u00abSwiss Army knife\u00bb, this vehicle's tailgate and Frunk allow you to handle airport transfers with a lot of luggage with peace of mind. It's the most versatile work tool, so you'll never say \u00abno\u00bb to a customer.<\/p>\n\n\n The truth about profitability: forget the bonus, aim for amortisation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
