⚡🚘 AUTUMN BUDGET 2026: WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR YOUR NEXT CAR?
Already driving electric or considering the switch? From charging costs to planned pay-per-mile charges, there’s plenty to take in.
Nick Darlow at ND Vehicle Consultancy helps you understand what developments mean for your vehicle choices, your driving needs and your budget.
Rod Dennis, Senior Policy Officer from RAC said: “RAC research shows high fuel prices are prompting more people to consider going electric. But those who can’t charge at home may be frustrated that VAT wasn’t cut on public charging to make it more affordable. Drivers who rely on public chargers continue to pay the full 20% VAT rate, which is far higher than the 0% currently charged on domestic electricity in Great Britain. Reducing VAT on public charging would have been an obvious way for the Government to make the switch more accessible for more people. Instead, following its review of public charging costs, it appears to be exploring a different approach that would allow drivers to use lower-powered public chargers at the same cost as charging at home. We look forward to hearing more details on this."
