Background
Since 2017, new car prices have increased dramatically. The £40,000 threshold now unfairly penalizes families buying essential vehicles, especially hybrids and EVs which the government promotes. Raising the threshold to £55,000 will incentivize cleaner vehicle adoption, reflect market realities, and create a fairer tax system, supporting the transition to greener transportation.
