The Government has consulted on bringing in electric vehicle excise duty on EV drivers from 2028.
Our key asks:
- Delay eVED implementation until 2030, aligning it with the ZEV Mandate end of sale of ICE vehicles targets.
- Provide more time to work out technical implementation details.
- Use increased fuel duty revenue to fund ev charging infrastructure investment.
- Ensure future eVED revenue is used to support the EV transition and not just pot hole repair.
- Funding asks include: Dedicated support for HGV Charging Infrastructure to support the Government's proposed HGV ZEV Mandate, including for grid upgrades. Improved funding for flexibility rewards to support the UK's energy security and the Government's SSES programme.
Get involved:
Write to your MP, asking them to question whether the impact of eVED has been considered against the ZEV Mandate sales targets.
