🚗⚡ UK Introduces Pay-Per-Mile Road Tax for Electric Vehicles
Starting April 2028, the UK government will charge EV drivers 3p per mile and plug-in hybrids 1.5p per mile under the new eVED system — replacing lost fuel duty revenue as the nation shifts to electric. The average EV driver could pay ~£240/year, still less than petrol fuel duty. But critics warn it could slow the green transition.
