EV drivers could face new tax in Budget

In the upcoming Budget, there may be a new pay-per-mile tax for electric vehicles (EVs), as reported by the Telegraph. EV drivers could face a charge of 3p per mile to make up for the revenue shortfall from the transition away from petrol and diesel vehicles. While the government aims for a fairer system for all drivers and supports the shift to EVs, there are concerns about potential tax burdens on EV owners and the impact on the transition to cleaner vehicles.
