Italy, one of Europe’s most sluggish market for electric cars, aims to put 1 million electric vehicles on the road by 2022. The plan could cost the state $10 billion in incentives.

The proposal is part of the contract between the Five Star Movement and the League, which calls for reductions in gasoline and diesel vehicles, and for incentives to support the acquisition of electric and hybrid vehicles.

According to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association, Italians bought around 2,600 fully electric passenger vehicles last year, out of a total of 2 million cars sold. The number rises to 4,800 in plug-in hybrid models. Less than 5,000 fully electric models are estimated to be on Italian roads today.

The Italian government is looking into ways to roll out incentives to reach the level of Norway’s, in order to go from being an electric vehicles backwater to one of Europe’s biggest market. The push could cost several billion euros, and even that might not be enough
