====Registered before 1 April 2017==== [[File:UK car vehicle excise duty 2013.svg|thumb|upright=0.7|Graph of vehicle excise duty vs theoretical [[carbon dioxide]] emission for cars in the United Kingdom as of 2013, labelled with class bands. The solid blue line denotes the first year and the dashed black line denotes subsequent years. The dotted black line (labelled *) denotes vehicles registered before 23 March 2006.]] For vehicles registered between 1 March 2001 and 31 March 2017 charges are based on theoretical CO<sub>2</sub> emission rates per kilometre. The price structure was revised from 1 April 2013 to introduce an alternative charge for the first year (the standard cost was not changed, and remained the same as for 2001 onwards). The "first year rate" only applies in the year the vehicle was first registered and is said by the government to be designed to send "a stronger signal to the buyer about the environmental implications of their car purchase".<ref name="Vehicle tax rates"/><ref name=current_rates>{{cite web |url=http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Motoring/OwningAVehicle/HowToTaxYourVehicle/DG_10012524 |title=The cost of vehicle tax for cars, motorcycles, light goods vehicles and trade licences |work=Direct Gov |access-date=2 June 2011}}</ref> Charges as applicable from 1 April 2025: {| class="wikitable" |+Vehicles registered between 1 March 2001 and 31 March 2017 |- !Car emission band !Standard cost (Β£) !Notes |- | Band A (up to 100 g/km)|| rowspan="2" | 20|| |- | Band B (101β110 g/km)|| |- | Band C (111β120 g/km)|| 35 || |- | Band D (121β130 g/km)|| 160 || |- | Band E (131β140 g/km)|| 190 || |- | Band F (141- 150 g/km)|| 210 || |- | Band G (151 to 165 g/km)|| 255 || |- | Band H (166 to 175 g/km)|| 305 || |- | Band I (176 to 185 g/km)|| 335 || |- | Band J (186 to 200 g/km)|| 385 || |- | Band K (201 to 225 g/km)|| 415 ||Also vehicles with >225 g/km registered before 23 March 2006. |- | Band L (226 to 255 g/km)|| 710 || |- | Band M (Over 255 g/km)|| 735 || |}
