I’ve got all the rates for cars, EVs, vans and bikes
The cost of motoring in Britain just took a major hit. From the beginning of this month, 1st April 2025, road tax – or Vehicle Excise Duty (VED) to use the proper term – has undergone a serious shake-up, and it’s affecting everyone: petrol and diesel drivers, EV owners, motorcyclists, and van users alike. Basically you will ALL PAY MORE! But how much more?
Prepare for major changes on the roads as draconian driver licence restrictions roll out, and EVs get slapped with London’s Congestion Charge starting in 2025. The rising costs of driving are dampening the driving spirit, and potholes continue to wreak havoc on our vehicles. The battle against motorists is intensifying, and it’s set to escalate with the upcoming government changes.
