2020 VED Changes for all new cars

Vehicle Road Tax (VED) is changing for new vehicles registered on or after 1st April 2020 so if you are considering changing your new car then now is the time to do so.

1st April 2020 will see the introduction of a more accurate way of testing the CO2 emissions new vehicles emit. The new measuring process which is set to be introduced is called The Worldwide Harmonised Light Vehicles Test Procedure (WLTP) and it determines the official CO2 emissions, range and fuel consumption of all new vehicles.

The WLTP has been designed to better reflect real driving conditions and therefore a more accurate measure of vehicle emissions and fuel economy. Due to the fact the WLTP test is more rigorous, the results it produces are far more realistic so this could result in an increase in road tax on your next new car.

Changing your new car with Burrows before 1st April 2020 could save you hundreds of pounds. The below table displays all the VED price increases for each particular CO2 emissions banding.
