An Act amending Title 75 (Vehicles) of the Pennsylvania Consolidated Statutes, in general provisions, further providing for definitions; in fees, providing for electric vehicle fire hazard fee; and imposing a penalty.

This bill updates Pennsylvania's vehicle laws to create specific definitions for electric and hybrid vehicles while introducing a new annual fee to fund fire safety programs. Owners of electric vehicles will pay a $250 fee each year, while those with plug-in hybrid vehicles will pay $125, with the collected money going to the State Fire Commissioner for grants to fire companies. The legislation requires vehicle owners to pay this fee when registering or renewing their vehicle, and it allows the state to deny registration or title transfers if the fee remains unpaid.
