Interesting, thanks for the explaination. That’s definitely not something I’ve seen around here. If anything there’s more fees for having a new vehicle because they’re all heavy SUVs / Trucks / EVs, and you end up paying a heavy vehicle tax that older (and generally lighter) cars don’t hit.
At least a heavy vehicle tax has some base in physics (more mass needs more energy to move and all that). The idea that new vehicles are better for emissions just due to when they are made is silly.
