60 vehicles that are facing £2,745 car tax

car tax

The Government is about to ramp Car Tax or VED charges for petrol and diesel models starting April 2025 on a vehicle’s first year. This is due to major alterations in Vehicle Excise Duty rates unveiled in the Autumn Budget by Labour.

The fee increase will be on a sliding scale, those on higher tiers will see their fees double from the current 2024 rates.

Vehicles emitting over 255 g/km of CO2 are in line for the steepest £2,745 rise, impacting some of the most common vehicles on our roads.

It is thought that over 60 cars from 24 different brands, including big names like BMW, Audi, Ford and Mercedes, are facing a £2,745 car tax hike from 1st April.

Luxury vehicles will face the lion’s share of the charge with owners of Porsche, Lotus, Lamborghini and McLaren to bit hit with a steep hike as shown below.

This impact is for cars that actually emit CO2 and other nasty gases. As we mentioned in this post EV owners are not escaping this outrageous tax grap on motorists. The Zero band EV is being replaced by a flat £195 / year and a further £400 / year luxury tax of all cars that sold for £40,000 or more when purchased and is being backdated for car purchased in 2017 onwards. – We call this disgusting.
