Electric Cars Face New Mileage Tax | Leeds News

Description

The government’s new eVED pay-per-mile system for electric cars launches April 2028, charging 3p per mile for EVs and 1.5p for plug-in hybrids — sparking debate over fairness, complexity, and whether it’ll actually encourage adoption or deter drivers. While an opt-in mileage tracking feature aims to boost accuracy, critics warn it adds unnecessary hurdles at a crucial moment for electrification, with concerns over cost, fraud, and equity for high-mileage and vulnerable users.
