High fuel prices: Italy largely waives vehicle tax for a year
In Italy too, significantly more has to be paid at petrol stations than in the past. Now, for 2027, the Meloni government is waiving the vehicle tax for many cars and motorcycles.
Italy's government, led by Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, has decided to waive vehicle tax for a year on cars with an output of less than 80 kilowatts, as well as on motorbikes and scooters. The exemption, which applies to around 14.5 million vehicles, is intended to relieve financial pressure on families due to high fuel prices.
Only one vehicle per owner qualifies, and the waiver automatically applies to the vehicle with the lowest output. The move is part of a series of tax relief measures, according to Meloni's right-wing coalition.
