Surcharges for all-electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles modified, and vehicle weight surcharge established.

HF 3430 imposes new annual registration surcharges on all-electric vehicles ($100 starting in 2027) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles ($50 starting in 2027), replacing previous calculation methods. It also creates a weight-based surcharge for passenger vehicles: 7% for vehicles weighing 5,000-5,999 pounds and 10% for heavier vehicles (6,000+ pounds), applied to existing registration taxes. These surcharges apply to registrations beginning January 1, 2027, and revenue must fund highway maintenance. The bill directly affects owners of electric vehicles, plug-in hybrids, and heavier passenger vehicles through updated registration costs.
