Bill Summary

Motor vehicles; additional license tax and registration fee; distribution of proceeds to the Alabama Public Transportation Trust Fund

AI Summary

This bill amends the Code of Alabama to impose additional license taxes and registration fees on battery electric vehicles ($200 annually) and plug-in hybrid electric vehicles ($100 annually), with periodic increases over time. The proceeds from these additional fees, after an initial distribution to the state, counties, and municipalities, will be deposited into the Rebuild Alabama Fund and used by the State Department of Transportation to fund electric vehicle transportation charging infrastructure. Once electric vehicle registrations reach 4% of total motor vehicle registrations, the additional fees will be reduced, and the remaining proceeds will be distributed to the state, counties, and municipalities for road and bridge construction and maintenance. Additionally, the bill imposes a new $5 annual license tax and registration fee, with the proceeds dedicated to the Alabama Public Transportation Trust Fund to increase public transportation options across the state, although counties and municipalities can opt-out of this requirement.
