Italy car tax exemption proposal

Overview

A proposal to suspend the car tax (bollo auto) for vehicles with less than 81kw has caused political and public division in Italy. Polling indicates that while 48% of the public views the measure as correct, 41% consider it wrong, with support largely split along political lines.

In response to anticipated government decree No. 162, which aims to eliminate the tax for certain petrol or diesel vehicles not exceeding 80 kW of thermal power, automotive manufacturer MG has launched a promotion. The company is offering to cover car tax payments through 2027 for its MG3 and MG ZS Hybrid+ models. Under the proposed regulations, the exemption applies to the thermal engine's power rather than combined hybrid output, and the tax relief for individuals is expected to apply to renewals with deadlines in 2027.
