Electric goods vehicles now need an MOT

From today (Saturday 1 September 2018), electric vans will no longer be exempt from the MOT if they:

  • have a gross weight not exceeding 3,500kg
  • were first registered on or after 1 March 2015

These vehicles will need their first MOT on the third anniversary of when they were registered.

If your vehicle is no longer exempt and the third anniversary has already passed, it will need a current MOT to be legally driven and taxed from today.
