The Chancellor’s Autumn Budget 2025 is a real mixed bag for EV drivers – giving with one hand, taking with the other. In this episode, Ginny and Batch unpack the biggest announcements and what they mean for your running costs, your next car, and the UK’s switch to electric.
Are EV drivers being unfairly targeted, or is this a sensible way to fund Britain’s roads in an electric future? We look at the winners and losers, how pay-per-mile will be managed – and whether the extra grants and charging investment truly balance things out.
Top headlines from the Budget:
⚡ Pay-per-mile tax is coming for EVs from April 2028 (3p per mile for pure EVs; 1.5p for plug-in hybrids).
⚡ £1.3bn boost to EV discounts via a refreshed plug-in / electric car grant package to keep upfront prices down.
⚡ £200 million for UK charging infrastructure, aiming to speed up rollout and improve access across the country.
⚡ Increased threshold for EVs in the luxury car tax (the Expensive Car Supplement), pulling more mainstream EVs out of the extra charge zone.
