THE CENTRE PARTY wants to impose a mileage-based tax for electric vehicles to offset the decline in tax revenue caused by the electrification of road traffic, reports STT.
Markus Lohi (Centre), the chairperson of the Parliament’s Finance Committee, and Eeva Kalli (Centre) call for creation of the mileage-based tax in a dissenting opinion attached to the committee’s report on the car tax act, arguing that also electric vehicle owners should help to cover the costs of developing and maintaining transport infrastructure.
