Motor Vehicles: Taxation
The question
To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, pursuant to the Answer of 28 January 2025 to Question 25682 on Motor vehicles: taxation, whether any impact assessment has been produced on changes to tax on double cab pick-up vehicles in the Autumn Budget 2024.
Answered by James Murray
The change in treatment for Double Cab Pick-ups (DCPUs) as announced at Autumn Budget 2024 was to align treatment with recent case law to treat them as cars, and not a change in policy requiring legislation. As mentioned in my answer of 28 January 2025, given this was not a policy change, it sits outside the Tax Consultation Framework. Under that framework, Tax Information and Impacting Notes (TIINs) are only published alongside legislation at fiscal events.
