U.S. Congress mulls annual $130 fee for EV drivers, saying they should pay road tax
The U.S. Congress is pushing legislation that would impose a separate annual fee of up to $130 on electric vehicle drivers, arguing they should contribute to road upkeep because EVs do not pay the federal gasoline tax. The bill would also charge plug-in hybrids $35 a year and raise the EV fee by $5 annually from 2029 to as much as $150. Industry and environmental groups say the plan amounts to a punitive tax that could hurt EV adoption.
