Electric cars in Le Havre

Le Havre is a major port in Normandy, a region in northern France with a population of 170,000. Le Havre is not currently part of a low-emission zone (ZFE ), but will soon have to comply with the rules of the Mobility Orientation Law (LOM ), which aims to redefine citizens' mobility. By 2025, pre-2011 diesel and pre-2006 gasoline vehicles (Crit'Air 3 & 4 & 5 stickers & unclassified) will no longer be allowed to drive Monday to Friday from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. in towns with more than 150,000 inhabitants . In Normandy, the Rouen Normandy Metropolis has established "low-emission zones" (ZFE), starting in 2021.

Le Havre got a head start a few years ago, being one of the first towns in France to take an interest in electric cars. In 2010, the municipality installed 12 public charging stations, enabling 90 users to recharge their cars. Le Havre was awarded a Trophée des Territoires Electromobiles in 2010.
