My guess, who cares but for what it's worth, is it won't be for prior purchased cars (you can still get £0 VED on some glorious diesels we were once so encouraged to buy, just like electrics are now), but I reckon it will be the same as the lower rate petrol car price (currently £165). They got to make up the revenue loss from somewhere.be interested to see the detail on that - will it only apply to vehicles purchased from 2025? It will surely be lower than ICE cars?
Do you think they’ll still be in next year ?Hang on - April 2025?
There will be a general election before then won’t there?
He can promise anything for 2025 and it doesn’t really matter that much
At least it makes clear that for now it starts at zero
It will apply to all EVs even those purchased second hand, not just new ones purchased in 2025be interested to see the detail on that - will it only apply to vehicles purchased from 2025? It will surely be lower than ICE cars?
I agree. That makes it more than hybrids. They get £10 discount so I expect EVs should get something similar if not moreSo £165 pa for an EV, the same as for a petrol car. I understand the need to have a charge, but I thought it would be set lower than for a petrol car!
5.35Any mention of EV BIK, Benfit in Kind. The amount of people that have jumped out of their £50k BMW and Merc gas guzzling company vehicles into the Audi and Tesla type EV's are paying a fraction of the company car tax they used to.
Surely, if he is hitting private EV's like this, he should also go for the "cheap" company cars ?
yeah, I'm not sure how you can put EV rates up (going back to cars registered 5 years ago!) and keep other rates lower? I'm still paying £30 for my diesel, surely that wont still be £30 come 2025??I agree. That makes it more than hybrids.
as others have mentioned though, the tories will hopefully be gone before this change comes into effect, although it will be legislated for and will be the default position unless labour actively come in and change it.Starting to have second thoughts about our MG4 order now too. We currently pay £20 a year for our dirty diesel 2015 Focus.
Will be paying £145 more a year with the MG4 from 2025, by the sounds of things. I guess they won’t be getting my growth into the automobile industry.
How is a dirty diesel cheaper to keep than an EV…? Madness.
