How Much Road Tax Do you Pay with Electric Vans?

As the world is changing and becoming more conscious of environmental implications, electric vans are starting to become more popular. Although electric vans have a range of different benefits including saving the planet, spending less on running costs and improving company image – how much road tax should you expect to pay if you opt for an electric van?

Take a look at our guide on how much road tax you pay for electric vans, as well as what vans to look out for in 2022!

How Much Road Tax Can I Expect to Pay?

Road tax is usually dependent on a number of different factors, including CO2 emissions, its power train and the intended use. Some good news for electric van road tax is that there is no road tax. This incentive has been added by the Government in the hope that more van users will opt for an electric vehicle. Other incentives, as well as no road tax, can include free parking in certain areas and exemption from London Congestion Charge too!

However, it is important to recognise that this does not apply to hybrid and plug-in hybrid vans. Instead, they still have to pay the annual £275 fee. This road tax exemption might not last forever though, as electric vans are likely to become more prevalent on our roads.

New Electric Vans to Look Out from Van Suppliers

As the choice of electric vans for sale becomes more extensive, it can become confusing on what vehicle would be best for you. Here are just a few vehicles we think you should keep a close eye on:

  • Vauxhall Vivaro Electric Van – Leading the pack when it comes to medium electric vehicles, this van could be considered an all-rounder with its driving range of 200 miles and payload that stretches over 1200kg. The vehicle is also available in two battery sizes – 50kWh and 75kWh.
  • Renault Kangoo Electric Van – This van is one of Europe’s best-selling small vans, and that’s no surprise when it comes down to its impressive payload between 625kg and 640kg, as well as its driving range of 143 miles.
  • Citroen Berlingo Electric Van – With a payload of 800kg and a driving range of 171 miles, this small van has all the capabilities to suit the needs of independent operators and tradesmen.

"Vanaways is really great, from contacting them up to the delivery can't be smoother than it was. These guys are professionals and I believe the best in the industry. Thanks to Philip Jones, Ross Davies, Jihad Khan and one or two individuals I had contact with throughout the process. I recommend Vanaways and will use them again."

"Very happy with our Vanaways transaction! We needed three new vans quickly for our company and Vanaways didn't disappoint. Hannah and Abbie were on hand every step of the way and provided extremely good prices which suited our business. Customer service is a priority for them and it shows with every phone call and email! When I need a few more, they will be my first port of call. Thankyou guys!"
