Cars registered after 2017
Standard VED fees for models registered after 2017 will rise from £190 to £195 per annum from April 1.
However, the bigger updates will impact owners of brand new models with first-year charges to dramatically increase.
The most polluting models emitting more than 255g/km of CO2 will see fees rise from £2,745 to £5,490 in the biggest increase of the Spring.
Cars emitting between 226-255g/km of CO2 will be charged up to £4,680, up from the previous £2,340.
Cars registered 2001 – 2017
Vehicles registered between these years pay VED based on vehicle emissions bands with higher polluting models feeling the biggest sting.
The most polluting cars producing over 255g/km of CO2 will pay £760, up from the previous £735.
Meanwhile, cars emitting 226-255g/km of CO2 will be charged £735 per annum from April, up from the current £710 rate.
Cars registered between 1985 and 2001
Only classic cars registered before 1985 are exempt from VED car tax fees meaning models built just after this will still need to pay.
According to Pete Barden, vehicles with engines above 1549cc will pay £360 compared to £345 over the current tax year.
Meanwhile, models with sample engines below 1549cc will pay £10 more with rates increasing from £210 to £220.
