SF 2688 Minnesota Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Surcharge on all-electric vehicles modification

This bill increases the annual surcharge for all-electric vehicles from $75 to $200 and adds new surcharges for plug-in hybrid electric vehicles ($100), all-electric motorcycles ($40), and plug-in hybrid electric motorcycles ($20). The surcharge amounts will adjust each year based on changes to the gasoline excise tax rate, calculated by multiplying the current surcharge by (1 + the percentage increase in gasoline tax). All revenue from these surcharges will fund Minnesota's highway user tax distribution fund. The bill directly affects owners of these specific electric vehicle types when registering their vehicles.
