- weighs 1001kg–3500kg.

The amount you pay will depend on the type of electric vehicle you have.

Anyone using New Zealand’s roads contributes towards their upkeep. Most road users pay fuel tax when they buy petrol, through fuel excise duty (FED). Others, such as drivers of diesel vehicles, pay through RUC.
