  • Zero-emissions vehicles such as electric vehicles and hydrogen combustion vehicles as well as vehicles with a hydrogen fuel cell with a Technically Permissible Maximum Laden Mass greater than 4.25 tonnes remain toll-free until 30 June 2031.

  • In accordance with the EU Directive on infrastructure costs or the VECTO directive, a CO₂-neutral fuel currently has no effect on the specific CO₂ emissions or CO2 emission class. (VECTO = Vehicle Energy Consumption Calculation Tool)

  • Zero-emission means a heavy goods vehicle without an internal combustion engine and a vehicle with an internal combustion engine whose emissions are less than 1 gCO₂/kWh or less than 1 gCO₂/km (directive (EU) 2019/1242).

    The CO₂ emission class finder allows zero-emission fuel types/energy sources to be specified, for example for a pure electric vehicle or a hydrogen-powered vehicle.
