PUBLISHED 4:31 PM CDT Apr. 10, 2023AUSTIN, Texas — Skyler Williams plugs in his electric vehicle at a charging station off Highway 35 in Central Texas. He waited almost four years to get a Rivian.He paid about $80,000 for his Rivian. Soon, he and other EV owners could be required to cough up an additional $200 a year. That’s because the Senate just passed a bill to tax EV owners with a $200 registration fee. It would cost $400 at the time of purchase.
Owners of gas-powered vehicles have the benefit of paying a small amount of tax every time they fill up their tank, instead of all at once. But Sen. Nichols came up with the $200 figure by looking at Sen. Sarah Eckhardt, D-Austin, said the $200 vehicle registration fee is appropriate. She owns an EV herself.
Sen. Eckhardt described the highway infrastructure as a “state asset” because it’s essential for our economy to move people, goods and services. She said before EVs grew in popularity, the state’s gas tax revenue was already decreasing because cars are more fuel efficient.
