    Julie I like that you love your stats ???

    How about an equivalent then….

    VW Up 1.0 Petrol – 100g/km CO2 – Fine of 475 Euros….. If you believe the emission figure for the VW Up.

    In reality this means that VW would need to produce far fewer EV cars to offset the CO2 tax than Kia.

    As for the level at which the EU CO2 tax cuts in at 95g/km CO2, that figure looks very deliberate when you look at a range of EU car engine emissions, they have chosen a figure that best suits the major EU car manufacturers & penalises everyone else, without making much sense from an environmental standpoint as large cities would benefit from zero emissions.
