In practice, it means that even relatively modest family cars like the Kia Niro will be affected in their #EV form, but not their petrol one. To illustrate, I’ve done some back-of-envelope calculations on this.

Monthly lease cost (same ‘4’ trim, same supplier): Petrol £376, EV £396
Annual VED 2024: Petrol £180, EV £0
Annual VED 2025 (not allowing for raises): Petrol £180, EV £590
