UK: New green taxes for ‘gas-guzzling’ cars

Motorists face having to pay new green taxes as ministers step up their war on “gas-guzzling” cars.

The Government wants to get people out of high-emissions vehicles by making them more expensive, while also cutting the cost of driving for more environmentally-friendly options.

Two recently published reports commissioned by the Department for Transport examine the impact of raising the cost of buying the most polluting cars, and of increasing running costs by raising road tax or fuel prices.
