Isn’t this this proposed pay per mile tax instead of Vehicle Excise Duty? If so, would it be payable by Motability customers? I’d assumed that it wouldn’t be, as VED isn’t. Or is that just wishful thinking?
That’s a good question, but my understanding is that the idea is that it’s to replace declining fuel duties, rather than VED. Motability drivers aren’t exempt from the fuel duty payable on petrol or diesel, so I doubt would be exempt from this either so, yes, probably wishful thinking. However, it’s not been properly thought through, so anything is possible
Ahh, I’d got the wrong end of the stick then. That’s bad news. We do a lot of miles and swapped to an EV mainly because we couldn’t afford to fuel a diesel car any more. 🙁
