To determine the size of the discount, the Federal Government created a points system that takes into account the car's price, CO2 emissions, national density, and energy consumption. The resulting score determines the discount amount, which can range from R$ 2 thousand to R$ 8 thousand, as detailed below:
- R$ 8 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score equal to or greater than 90;
- R$ 7 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score equal to or greater than 85 and less than 90;
- R$ 6 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score equal to or greater than 80 and less than 85;
- R$ 5 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score equal to or above 77 and below 81;
- R$ 4 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score equal to or above 73 and below 77;
- R$ 3 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score equal to or above 69 and below 73;
- R$ 2 thousand discount for vehicles with a total score below 69.
