Here's how Europeans are getting Renault EVs for free or super cheap

* Super-high subsidies in Germany mean car shoppers there are able to snag a Renault for free, Bloomberg's Elisa Miebach and Stefan Nicola report. * The government is giving away up to 9,000 euros for each electric car that they buy. * In France and the Netherlands as well, electric-car subsidies are egging consumers on to buy more — even as demand for gas-powered vehicles craters and cities create regulations to ban them in the future, Bloomberg reports. * Bloomberg writes that company cars in Germany typically come with the best deals, but that private drivers can still lease an EV for as low as 39 euros per month. * French consumers can lease the Renault Zoe, a hatchback electric model, for just 79 euros a month.  * Some offers, Bloomberg reports, do come with one-time fees or down payments.  * Visit Business Insider's homepage for more stories.
