Explained in plain English

Will my existing EV be taxed?

Yes, the new 3p-per-mile Electric Vehicle Excise Duty will apply to all electric cars from 1 April 2028, regardless of when they were purchased. This means if you already own an EV, your annual running costs will increase, potentially by £300 for 10,000 miles.
