Electric Vehicle User Fee Adopted

Alabama is the latest state to adopt what is known as an “EV user fee,” a fee charged annually to EV drivers in response to a national decline in gas tax revenue.  The fee in Alabama is set at $200 for all-electric vehicles and a $100 fee for plug-in hybrid vehicles. With less than 500 electric vehicles in the state of Alabama, these fees are punitive to potential and current EV drivers.
