Hi,

In regards to green taxes on vehicles; I think there is still some confusions between what is widely called "hybrid cars".

Banks are still making the distinction between petrol cars, hybrid cars AND plug-in hybrid cars when giving out loans.

What differs between the 2nd and 3rd type is that a plug-in hybrid car can drive on fully electric mode, for approx. 80km, and at a maximum speed of 130km/h, before switching to petrol engine. While a hybrid car, will automatically switch to petrol once it reaches max. 50km/h and the range is usually lower.

That said, I'm still unsure/confused if the 2026 green tax deduction will also apply to plug-in hybrid and only exclude hybrids or if it will only apply to fully electric cars, excluding hybrids and plugin-in hybrids.

If you have the answer, I'll be happy to read it :)

Best /Cedric
