How much you pay will depend on when your car was registered and how much carbon dioxide emissions it produces. For example, the car tax rate for a vehicle registered from March 2001 and before April 2017 that produces 121 to 130g/km of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions would be £135 for the year.
In some cases, vehicles are charged £0 for tax. If this includes your vehicle you will still need to renew your vehicle every year with the DVLA.
Such cars that aren't charged car tax include brand new vehicles that produce zero CO2 emissions and are proved less than £40,000. For cars registered between March 2001 and before April 1, you’ll pay £0 for car tax if your vehicle produces up to 100 grams of CO2 per kilometre driven.
