A car expert has revealed the top ten used cars that have the lowest car tax, with some costing just \u00a320. Cazoo explains that if a car is registered before April 2017 then it will tend to come with a much lower tax bill. The car tax, or Vehicle Excise Duty (VED)<\/a>\u00a0rules changed in April and meant that electric vehicles, which had previously been charged on CO2 emissions will attract a flat rate of \u00a3195 per year from next year while cars worth over \u00a340,000 will pay an Expensive Car Supplement.<\/a><\/p>\n

Cazoo explains how older cars. those registered before 31 March 2017 will be charged based on their emissions which could mean drivers pay between \u00a320 to \u00a335 a year.<\/p>\n

If your car was registered after 1 April 2025, you will pay the lowest first-year rate, but then \u00a3195 annually, owever, if you have an electriv vehicle registered before 31st March 2017 tax will be charged at \u00a320 a year.<\/p>\n
