Exempt Electric Vehicles with an RRP up to £60,000 from Expensive Car Supplement

Open for signatures 19 signatures

What the petition asks

Call on the Government to raise the list price threshold for the Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) "Expensive Car Supplement" (Luxury Road Tax) for zero-emission vehicles from the current limit to £60,000 for all such vehicles manufactured from April 2025 onwards
The current £50,000 threshold still captures many essential family-sized EVs, effectively penalising drivers for making a sustainable choice. Increasing this to £60,000 would better reflect the current market prices of long-range electric vehicles and further incentivise the transition to net-zero by making cleaner transport more affordable
