What a road user charge could cost your car
The Australian Electric Vehicle Association (AEVA) wants any road user charge priced on weight and distance rather than powertrain, at a rate of three cents per tonne-kilometre for light vehicles under 4.5 tonnes.
So what does that actually mean at your driveway? We applied the proposed rate to the sorts of cars Australians are buying, using the national average of 13,000km a year and each vehicle’s tare mass.
While the federal government has not revealed how a national road user charge (RUC) would function – namely because it hasn’t been locked in yet, others have.
The maths is fairly simple based on AEVA’s policy statement. Multiply your tare vehicle weight in tonnes by kilometres travelled, then by three cents.
EV group wants petrol, diesel vehicle owners to be taxed twice
The Australian Electric Vehicle Association wants a universal road-user charge to be implemented, but still wants fuel to be subject to an excise.
An electric vehicle (EV) lobby group has once again called for a road-user charge to be implemented in Australia, but it doesn’t want the existing fuel excise to be repealed.
The Australian Electric Vehicle Association (AEVA) is calling for EVs to be subject to a cost-per-distance charge, and for combustion-powered vehicles to be subject to both this and the existing fuel excise.
The group had previously proposed a mass by distance road-user charge (RUC) that would apply to all vehicles, but replace the fuel excise rather than exist in tandem with it.
