I set out to understand what happens in the worst-case scenario, namely the car not being delivered by 30 June 2026 and the loss of the MASE-PNRR grant.
From what I have gathered, if I have fulfilled all the obligations of the order and the delay is down to the seller, I would not be left completely exposed. If I have paid a confirmatory deposit, Article 1385 of the Civil Code allows me to withdraw and claim double the deposit.
The most interesting point, however, concerns the lost bonus: if I met all the requirements to obtain it, the loss of the incentive can be considered a direct financial loss, not merely a missed opportunity. In practice, one could seek compensation for the difference between the price with the promised incentive and the full price.
Obviously, one needs to be able to demonstrate clearly that the loss is due to the delay or negligence of the dealership. As a precaution, I am keeping the order, receipts, communications and any written dates.
