Charges are increasing for almost all petrol and diesel vehicles
Motorists will see the amount of vehicle tax they pay increase this financial year after changes came into force on Saturday, April 1.
Starting from 52 to 75 CO2 band, drivers will be required to pay £30, an increase of £5 from £25. On the other end of the spectrum, owners of vehicles within the most polluting group - 255 CO2- will see tax increase by £240 to £2,605 per year. During the last financial year, drivers of these vehicles paid £630 in tax for the year if paid in one lump sum or £661.50 through 12 monthly instalments.
Failing to tax a vehicle on time or knowingly driving an untaxed vehicle can result in a hefty fine as well as voiding insurance.
