It found that the number of vehicles people were paying road tax on in the first year of registration was too high in the data that was given.

The UK's statistics agency has said the headline inflation rate for April was too high after it discovered it had been given incorrect road tax data by the Department for Transport.

"Consumers have not only been grappling with multiple April cost increases in the form of utilities, council tax, stamp duty, and road tax, but they are also hearing dire warnings of renewed high inflation on the back of the Trump tariffs," said Neil Bellamy, consumer insights director at GfK.

Import duty of 15% is also "much lower" than the tax on comparable combustion engine cars in India which also pay an additional road tax, according to HSBC.

The exact amount for your road tax will depend on the year your car was registered and the type of fuel it uses.
