Lots of cities are introducing these zones from 2020. However many vehicles will be exempt depending on their age/Euro rating. Depending on the city these are generally
Petrol cars and vans Euro 4 (2006)
Diesel cars and vans Euro 6 (2015)
HGVs Euro 6 (2013)
Vintage cars over 40 years oldLeeds have decided against any charge on vans and domestic cars due to most being exempt.
Those that will be hit the hardest will be smaller businesses who can’t afford to upgrade to more recent vehicle standards, even if grants are available to help, and those with diesel cars (e.g. taxi drivers).
The poorest domestic households will also be hit hard where cars are not exempt. Many run older cars due to the cost of buying a newer one being out of their price bracket.
going to keep driving my Triumph Herald then!
what about ‘classic’ trucks…are they exempt?
