Electric Vehicle (EV) and Plug-In Hybrid Electric Vehicle (PHEV) Annual Fee

In addition to standard registration fees, EVs and PHEVs are subject to an annual fee. Fee amounts vary based on gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR):

GVWR Annual EV Registration Fee Annual PHEV Registration Fee
5,999 pounds (lbs.) or below $130 $70
6,000 lbs. to 10,000 lbs. $190 $100
10,001 lbs. to 26,000 lbs. $340 $210
Greater than 26,001 lbs. $1,100 $700

The revenue from the annual fee will be apportioned to the highway restricted account. Beginning July 1, 2028, EV registration fees will be reduced by 30% for private residents.
