EV cars - annual government tax sticker/disc thing

[mallmagician]

Hi All,

I've just put a deposit down on an MG EP PLUS EV - 771,000 after subsidy - 998,000 before.

I am just sat here wondering how the government tax sticker disc works after the first year, and roughly how much money it will cost.  I believe its based on age and engine size usually - but have no idea the calculation - and also how that translates to EV?

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thanks

The first year road tax for my MG ZS EV was 200 Baht.

Wow, pretty cheap.  Have you any idea how it changes in subsequent years?

Thanks for the reply. How are you finding your car?

I don't know about future road tax cost, but I would guess that it's the same as for any other car i.e. after five years the tax falls by 10% p.a. and stabilizes at 50% of the original. But at 200 Baht per year it doesn't really matter.

 

I am very happy with the car. Once a month I take the old Nissan Navara out for a trip to keep it running, and after getting used to the ZS turning the wheel in the Navara is quite a workout.
