Not before time ---but I guess nobody drives anywhere anyway in an EV...needs to be a flat tax as well for excess resources used.
New Zealand announces road-user tax for electric vehicles.
Electric-vehicle owners in New Zealand will soon have to pay a road-user tax, based on the distance they travel.
From 31 March 2024, any electric car and plug-in hybrid vehicle (PHEV) weighing less than 3500kg will be required to pay the new tax, in an effort to recoup revenue lost from the petrol excise, the New Zealand Government said.
It is expected electrified cars will fall under the same road-user charge applied to diesel vehicles in the country, taxed at a rate of $NZ0.076 per kilometre
Almost got it right - move the weight down to 1,500kg
