Electric city cars, explained.

Search manufacturer-checked cars and the UK registration record, including older and discontinued electric models. Confirm the exact version and original list price before estimating its tax.

Used / historic includes models recorded in the UK register; it does not confirm stock currently for sale.

“Current model” means the range is listed by the manufacturer, not that every recorded variant is still sold. “UK registration record” confirms a source entry; its powertrain, eligibility and current availability may need verification. How the directory is compiled

How annual tax comparisons work
A comparison scenario, not a future tax quote. Annual renewal on 1 April 2028; first registered 1 April 2027. Current VED rates are held constant, with announced mileage rates added. Options, registration date and future rate changes can alter the result. See assumptions.

Registered and used cars need their real first-registration date in the calculator. The common catalogue scenario is for comparison only.
