They now charge $144 for "EV infrastructure" when you register the car. Which is hilarious, because there is basically zero infrastructure here.
The roads here ain't great either, haha. But I see your point.Roads are EV infrastructure. They're not EV *only* infrastructure like chargers, but still infrastructure.
The reason for the difference is a first year registration from a car purchased at a licensed dealer is a 2 year registration.Texas charge more for EV registration. First time 400, then 200 in subsequent renewal. ICE vehicle usually is under 100.
In terms of aligning costs with user fees, their goal isn't necessarily to have perfect accuracy. They just need to recover their road maintenance costs in some way that reasonably accurately tracks usage. There is a high privacy cost to getting that last digit of accuracy, so I guess the idea is to accept slightly less accuracy, but in exchange, there is much less chance of privacy-based objections.With the Tesla, there was no GPS involved, so I was being "charged" for trips outside of the State, which I thought mildly unfair. I would rather have any travel in a given state, sent to that state, rather than the one I lived in.

From my view, the most "fair" approach would involve GPS working out where one was. But that brings up the Big Objection: Some government agency having data on where, exactly, one was at every instant.
The roads here ain't great either, haha. But I see your point.
Originally from MA, I feel that. Road would be repaved then after winter be completely destroyed.What's interesting is that these taxes are collected by the state, but then the road maintenance is determined by the municipality.
Our roads get destroyed by the Winter, so they're not great either... but we've got a neighboring city whose roads are *much, much* worse. As if the people that live there aren't buying gas.
Yea, missouri charges an ev tax, it went up to $270 for me this year and is expected to double (according to Lady from the dmv). My insurance is outrageous also, anyone getting a good rate? With what company?Lately I have been becoming aware of certain states charging extra government "taxes and fees" for registering a Tesla or non-Tesla EV. While it is true that gasoline taxes cover a portion of local highway road repairs, EV owners do not share in collecting this fee at the pumps. Luckily in NY we have no such penalties. Wondering how other states are handling this and what might be the future plans for states not currently charging extra taxes and fees for EVs. Seems a bit disjointed that nonpolluting EV owners should pay a penalty for helping save the planet.
Interesting. I'm in New Jersey. Yep, the state hands out bonuses to buy a BEV.I just came across this map, which pretty much sums up the latest tax situation. Luckily I reside in a “green“ state, but the majority of states are moving towards additional fees for EVs. Like everything else, state governments have creatively discovered yet another source of revenue in addition to sales and property taxes
