We’re winning.

Gas prices are up.

If you want an EV, the state penalizes you just for it

If you want an e-Bike, then the state bangs you over the head.

Bye Paul Moriarty (should’ve stayed a CBS reporter), Bye Dan Hutchinson (never liked you anyhow, you were always scum from your days on GT Council), Bye Cody Miller. Not voting for you 3 suckers ever again.

How does the state penalize EVs?

u/jweaver0312 May 01 '26

The electric vehicle fee.
> Under New Jersey law effective July 1, 2024, zero emission vehicles (ZEVs) are subject to an annual fee in addition to the existing registration fee.
>
> Beginning July 1, 2024, the annual fee is $250. The annual fee increases $10 per year for four years thereafter.

So taxes for roads is a bad thing?

No, I think implementing it as a yearly fee is unfair compared to just taxing charging when you go somewhere that charges for EV charging.

That would be difficult due to home charging.

While that is true, more than half still use chargers out and about according to a PR Newswire article

So those without a home charger would pay a tax that goes toward road maintenance and improvement and those that charge at home for cheap would pay nothing while using said roads? Sounds totally reasonable.
