One thing I'm wondering is what companies will do with regards to travel claims.

Currently when I visit a client I claim back those kms.

If I decide to buy an EV, then I will be able to pocket a lot more.

Will they eventually create a new category for EVs?

Interesting point but those claims also include maintenance and cost of ownership as a whole so it should really even out per kilometre.

Shouldn't really matter on the "how" just that it's a personal expense.

Exactly my point.

With the claimed "lower cost of maintenance", this system will easily be exploited.

I speculate we will see a lot of new taxes introduced with EVs.

Can you just keep quiet about that...

Nice breakdown, they even have a section for LPG cars.

Guess we'll have to wait and see what happens here.

With the current government efficiency you might have to wait 20 years or more for it to be finalised, and then anther 20 for it to be introduced. Kind of like the analogue shut off, and the 10 year license validity, both of which are coming "real soon now" for implementation.
